Final General Election Projection
This will be my final projection before the election. On Tuesday we will be one week away, so my next posting on the election will be my predictions. I will go more in depth on that blog but essentially I will make three predictions: the most likely outcome, Trump's best scenario, and Clinton's best scenario.
This week saw a bit of a shake up for the pollsters. In particular, CVOTER, had their polls removed. This did not come as a huge shock to me as early on I noticed oddities with their polls (Clinton doing much better in reliably Trump states and vice versa). I actually looked into the pollster two weeks ago and discovered that the pollster was an India organization that was known to take bribes in that country to make the polls look a certain way. Whether that is the reason they have been removed I do not know.
Kansas and Georgia both slipped back to lean states. For now, though I will not place either into the toss-up category and with the next posting coming on election day they will not become toss-ups.
Washington also moved to safe for Clinton.

TOSS-UP STATES
Pennsylvania
Twelve new polls this week. Clinton's lead rose to 4.92 in 87 polls 44.49-39.57. Trump was able to get on favorable poll this week but that was just a tie. I do not really consider Pennsylvania to be all that close anymore but by rule it is still a toss-up.
Missouri
Three new polls this week. Trump's lead increased to 4.89 in 45 polls 42.73-37.84. This was a good week for Trump here as in all three polls he had leads.
Florida
NINETEEN new polls this week. Clinton's lead grew to 2 in 110 polls 44.15-42.13. There are states that have not had 19 polls this entire election season let alone in a week. Though Trump did have some favorable polls this week the majority of Clinton's lead were fairly large (for Florida) hence why her lead grew.
Nevada
Ten new polls this week. Clinton's lead has grown to 0.84 in 63 polls 41.46-40.62.At this time Nevada looks very solid for Clinton as her grew lead. Trump did have some favorable polls but not enough to decrease the lead.
North Carolina
Fifteen polls this week. Clinton's lead grew to 0.67 in 92 polls 42.82-42.15. North Carolina is also beginning to look solid for Clinton as Trump has not lead in a poll in North Carolina in almost a week.
Iowa
Two new polls this week. Clinton's lead grew to 0.36 in 52 polls 39.63-39.27. Clinton still has the lead though not actually leading in a poll in also a week. A tie has more than likely kept her in the lead average.
Ohio
Ten new polls this week. Clinton lead down to 0.28 in 86 polls 41.13-40.85. I could absolutely see Trump actually pulling out a win in Ohio, and while for years the adage has been lose Ohio, lose the election, that may not be the case this week. Trump lead in the majority of the polls this week helping him cut into Clinton's lead.
Arizona
Four new polls this week. Trump's lead shrunk to 0.24 in 54 polls 40.57-40.33. There has been a complete reset in Arizona thanks in large part to CVOTER being taken off the list of pollsters. This was actually a good week for Trump as at one point Clinton enjoyed a slight lead.

JOHNSON ONLY POLLS PROJECTION
At this point it is pretty safe to assume that Johnson's support has collapsed. In states where McMullin is on the ballot some of those voters are going to him, but in truth Republican voters are coming home to Trump
