Virginia is a state that a lot of the corrupt media and pollsters have written off for Trump. The assumption was because creepy Tim Kaine is on the ticket, that it was a slam dunk for Hillary Clinton. Well, not so fast. Trump has taken a three point lead in Virginia, at state with 13 electoral votes. Polling shows Hillary Clinton losing 15 points in the state. Similar results to the ABC/Washington Post daily tracking poll that’s over sampled with Democrats.

New York — Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has taken the lead in the latest poll out of the battleground state of Virginia, with his Democrat rival Hillary Clinton slipping 15 points in a month.
The Hampton University Center for Public Policy (CPP) poll out on Wednesday afternoon shows that Trump has taken a three-point lead over Clinton in the Old Dominion, inside the poll’s margin of error of 4.57 percent. The survey of 802 Virginians, taken from Oct. 26 through Oct. 30—meaning it was conducted both before and after the FBI announced its reopening of the criminal investigation into Hillary Clinton’s illicit home brew email server—found Trump at 44 percent and Clinton at 41 percent.A release from the University notes that Trump had already started closing the gap in Virginia before FBI director James Comey’s announcement, in his letter to Congress, but that Clinton was ahead by a small margin then. It was after the FBI announcement that the bottom dropped out of Clinton’s campaign in Virginia, boosting Trump way over her.
If black voter turnout is really lagging as much as some reports have stated, I don’t see why Virigina can’t be won for Trump. Leftists have ruined Northern Virginia, but the rest of the state is mostly Republican.
