Hmmm: Axiom Battleground County poll shows glimmer of hope for TrumpSeven swing states? Seven battleground counties as bellwethers for the presidential election? Why does this sound so … familiar? Axiom Strategies and Remington Research have teamed up to provide a look at polling in key counties as an indicator for November, and two of the seven — and five of the seven states — match up with my book Going Red.
At the moment, the Axiom Battleground Counties (ABC) survey shows some good news for Donald Trump:
The first two counties in the ABC series match up exactly with Going Red. ABC also picks up Ohio, North Carolina, and Virginia as key states, although they choose different counties as bellwethers. In their launch, ABC explains that they are looking for counties that matched most closely with the end result in the last four presidential elections, while my selection focused on counties where Bush won and Republicans lost to Barack Obama, as well as offering a look at demographic profiles that matched up with the state as a whole.
