new mexico and new hampshire, that would be enough to win. she doesn t need florida and she doesn t need ohio or north carolina. those are insurance. the question is whether by focusing so much on those states she left any opening for donald trump who is now pushing for several of those states in her inner 270. so, what do we see in the numbers of our polls? david, you can comment on this. i don t have a wall. hold on, these are our swing state battleground states. he is up in arizona. she is up, marginally, in florida. he is up in nevada. she is up in pennsylvania. okay, go ahead, david. well, i think not only our polling up in pennsylvania but the marquette poll that shows her up six points in wisconsin. that s very important for her. but if you look at those really important states for her and if she can combine new hampshire, it s done. it s over. it s 270. as ron has been saying a lot,
worried. she doesn t need florida to win. she doesn t need ohio, north carolina to win. you think about that, i think that shows still how narrow donald trump s path is to the presidency. he is out campaigning today in the west in nevada, a state which he has struggled in, a state he was actually doing well in but then started to fall quite far behind hillary clinton in a lot of more recent polls. he is defending himself in arizona, which should not be competitive but it suddenly is. he is going back to colorado where the early vote returns show that democrats are ahead of republicans. the race while it is still very close is still ultimately hers to lose it appears. quickly, if clinton is elected, how do these e-mails play out long-term? well, i think you have to consider, alex, the specter of future congressional inquiries into her e-mail use, into just
