Hillary Clinton can make inroads in red states for the first time for Democrats since the 1990s
In one of the more unconventional election cycles in recent memory, the 2016 electoral map may look quite different from previous maps, with a few traditional red states perhaps turning blue. Hillary Clinton may be a surprise contender in states that haven't voted for a Democrat in decades, which would likely mean an electoral landslide over Republican nominee Donald Trump.
Three states with a decent chance of switching from red to blue include Texas, Mississippi and South Carolina. Losing any of those states would likely spell doom for Trump, as Clinton is expected to receive a minimum of 206 of the 270 electoral votes needed to win the election.
While winning any of the three states would mean a monumental victory, it remains a longshot considering Trump's ability to stay competitive in national polls.
In Texas, Trump leads Clinton in a head-to-head race, 42 percent to 36 percent, according to Texas Lyceum poll and an Emerson College poll. Both polls were conducted in the early part of September, and after Clinton saw a boost from the debate…………..
……….. That status of Mississippi, a state with just six electoral votes, is more uncertain. It's been several weeks since a poll was released for Mississippi, though the past results were rather encouraging for Clinton. In a three-way race, the Washington Post/SurveyMonkey poll had Trump at 46 percent, compared to Clinton at 43 and Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson at 4 percent……..
…………. The race for South Carolina may be the most ominous for Trump. A recent Winthrop University poll had Trump leading 42 percent to 38 percent, and with Johnson trailing at 6 percent and Stein at 3 percent. But the six-point advantage may not be secure with 7 percent not sure or undecided and 4 percent refused to answer………
