Clinton Would Crush Trump In Electoral College

Larry Sabato’s Crystal Ball takes advantage of the lull in the primary season to put together an electoral map forecast for a general election between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

“Our new map is one that will evolve, maybe substantially, after the conventions. Remember that independent and/or third-party candidates could change the calculus. Nonetheless, here is our extra-early, ridiculously premature projection of the Electoral College map in a possible Hillary Clinton-Donald Trump matchup. Yielding completely to boldness, or recklessness, we eliminated Toss-ups, and leaned all states to one or the other nominee. Each state’s electoral history, developing demographics, and current polling data guided our choices.”
