Sabato stuns CNN anchor with prediction Clinton will get 352 electoral votes

By Rebecca Savransky

Political analyst Larry Sabato on Thursday said Hillary Clinton could win more than 350 electoral votes — a statement that shocked a CNN anchor.

Sabato, director of the University of Virginia Center for Politics, said Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is "very unlikely" to win the presidential race.
"We now have Hillary Clinton at her peak for the year, at 352 electoral votes," Sabato said Thursday on CNN of the Democratic nominee.
 
"I know CNN is more cautious."
 
"What, wait, 352?" CNN's Carol Costello asked.
 
"Yes, we have her at 352, you have her at 307. We'll find out on election night who's closer," Sabato responded.
 
"OK, you've just stunned me into silence," Costello said, "so it's a good time to end it here."
 
Sabato's Crystal Ball is predicting Clinton will receive 352 electoral voters. In the analysis, the team writes that Clinton is in a "commanding position in the contest to become the 45th president."
 
In recent weeks, Clinton has been leading the polls both nationally and in many battleground states. According to the RealClearPolitics average of polls, Clinton has a 6-point lead over her Republican rival nationally.
 
The polls-plus election forecast on FiveThirtyEight predicts Clinton will get 326.6 electoral votes.
 
Sabato on Thursday also slammed Trump, suggesting he is living in an alternate reality. He said Trump has proclaimed he has won all three debates, which suggests "there are parallel universes."
 
"And he's living in a separate one where he wins the debates, he's winning the election and probably will take the oath of office after Nov. 8 on Jan. 20, even though he has not been elected president," Sabato said on CNN.

"It doesn't change a thing in this universe."

On one hand, I don't want Clinton thinking she has any kind of a mandate.
On the other, I don't want Trump thinking the election was stolen from him.
Damn. I wish I had three hands.
On Election night, one will be on a bottle and the other on a glass.

President is lost, time to focus on the Senate.


I actually think Trump can recover a little bit and seems to be. It won't be enough though.

I agree.  The Presidential election is a done deal; time to retreat back to protecting Senate and House seats.

I want to see HRC lose in a landslide, and then Trump govern as a solid Conservative with due respect for the Constitution.

But I think you've got a better chance with the three hands thing.

He probably will but he will invariably blow it to hell as he always does and there are no more debates to fix it. Not that he fixed anything after the first two. His pattern is to boost hillary.

Let's not ape the Trump supporters.

They posted this sort of stuff in the primaries. 

While they richly deserve to have their own behavior thrown back in their faces, we are better than that.

For we shouldn't be doing what we would not like done to us.

Problem is.. it doesn't take a Trumpster to experience that.  The rest of us experience the same intensity of loss as well.

   I admire your sense of the Humanity of it all, but @HonestJohn, These 'shiny squirrel' chaserin, Kardasian wannabe's just squandered the BEST Chance we had to get a Constitutional Conservative Elected in the last 30 years.  hellary was just so weak, but obviously stronger than trump.

Be careful what you wish for.  A Clinton presidency certainly isn't worth an 'in your face' short-lived moment!!

It's the only way these people are going to learn. Pain teaches. And if they don't, thats on them too.

It did not have to be this way. But we can't stop it. So we have to make the best of the situation. Trump is not an option. No one will vote for Hillary. So vote third party to boost their standing for next time, rid your life of Trump supporters to keep your family safe, buckle up in survival mode and let them get the full measure of what they forced on America. Alone. We arent needed.
