Latest Polls in Pennsylvania September 2016

A new poll out from the state of Pennsylvania shows that Hillary Clinton has a 7 point lead in the key state.

Trump has invested a lot of resources and has constantly said that he believes he can win there, Pennsylvania has not been won by the Republicans for the last 20 years.

The survey of likely voters conducted by The Franklin and Marshall College shows Clinton on 47% with Trump on 40%.

In the case of a four person contest, Clinton`s lead shrinks to just 3%, with the ex First Lady on 41% compared to 38% for Trump, Libertarian Gary Johnson on 7% and Green Party Jill Stein at on 2%. An interesting fact is that 13% of voters remain undecided at this late stage, meaning that the presidential debates could have an effect on which way the state votes.

There is a clear gender divide between Clinton and Trump`s supporters, Trump leads among white men by 41-38 whereas Clinton leads among white women 45-38.

Trump calls Hillary Clinton "The Devil" (Video)

Donald Trump shows no sign of letting up in his attacks on HIllary Clinton, just yesterday referring to the democratic candidate as "The Devil". During a speech in Pennsylvania, given in typical fashion, Trump immediately went on the attack against Clinton, or as he likes to call her "crooked Hillary".

Trump then went on to say that he thought the election could be "rigged" against him and referring to the endorsement of Clinton by Bernie Sanders said "He made a deal with the devil, she`s the devil".

Donald Trump Polls Swing States July 2016

Shock new polls are showing Donald Trump making big gains in the key swing states of Florida, Pennsylvania and Ohio.

According to Quinnipiac the numbers are the following

Florida

Trump    42%
Clinton   39%

Pennsylvania

Trump    43%
Clinton   41%

Ohio

Trump    42%
Clinton   42%


This is a massive change from June when the Quinnipiac showed Clinton with a healthy 8% lead in Florida and will no doubt have alarm bells ringing from within the democratic party. It may be merely a blip in the Clinton campaign following the email scandal, or indicative of a broader trend, one thing is sure, with the presidential election just months away, noboby can afford to be complacent.

It must be noted however, that Trump`s leads in Florida and Pennsylvania fall within the margin of error +/- 3%.

Exit Polls Pennsylvania Republican April 26 2016

Today the great state of Pennsylvania will be the setting for a Republican Primary of great importance.

The current state of the race is very uncertain with Donald Trump now the only candidate who can realistically reach the 1,237 delegates required in order to secure outright the nomination. However, if he fails to reach this mark then it will go down to a Contested Convention, where anything could happen.

Current delegate count

Donald Trump    845
Ted Cruz           559
John Kasich      148

A total of 71 delegates are available in Pennsylvania, however 54 of these are unbound, meaning that the winner of popular vote is only guaranteed 17 delegates, then it will be up to each individual delegate with regards to who to support.

As soon as the first exit polls and results start coming in from Pennsylvania they will be published here.

Donald Trump Speech 25 April 2016

With the republican race hotting up, the 3 candidates will be having a number of events just one day before 5 key states in the north east go to the polls in order to select who they best think can represent them.

Donald Trump in particular has become famous for his explosive speeches to packed crowds. On Monday April 25 he will give two speeches in Pennsylvania, at 4pm at West Chester University and at 7pm at Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza.

With less than 2 months left before the end of the primaries, there is much doubt swirling around the republican nomination. Donald Trump is the only one who can get the 1,237 delegates required in order to secure the nomination. Failing that, it will come down to a contested convention which is likely to be a very chaotic event which threatens to lay bare great divides within the party.

After a thumping win for Donald Trump in New York all eyes are now on the next 5 states to go to the polls on April 26. Yet another Super Tuesday will bring out republican and Democrat voters in the states of Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Delaware and Connecticut.

The big question now is whether or not Trump can repeat his success which on Tuesday saw him win a total of 89 delegates out of a possible 95.

If polls are anything to go by then Trump has a very good chance of winning the popular vote in Pennsylvania and Maryland, the other states are somewhat a mystery due to the fact that no reliable polling has been done recently in these areas.

As regards to Pennsylvania the RealClearPolitics average (April 4-18) has Trump at 43.8% followed by Cruz in second place with 24.6% and Kasich in third with 23.6%.

Maryland shows a very similar story with the businessman on 41% but Kasich edging out Cruz for second place with 26.3%, the Texas Senator comes in third with 24.5%

Should these numbers play out on election day then Trump has a very good chance of pushing closer to the 1,237 delegates he requires to win the nomination, however, in Pennsylvania a total of 54 delegates are unbound, so conceivably he could win with a majority of the popular vote but still be way behind in terms of delegate allocation in the state.
