WEIRD – AT 11:31 A.M. ET:  According to the mainstreamers, the election is over and Donald Trump has been deported.  But it's a strange thing – some very respected polls tell a very different story.  From IBD:

Trump Up 2 Points Nationwide, While Clinton Campaigns As If The Race Is Already Won — IBD/TIPP Poll

                   Clinton    Trump  Johnson  Stein  Other   Not sure
OVERALL:   40.8%    42.6%    7.2%    3.3%    1.9%    4.2%

COMMENT:  We must stress that this poll is an outlier, and yet has an excellent record of accuracy.  Both Rasmussen and the Los Angeles Times also have the race as very close, and must also be considered outliers.

The RealClearPolitics average of polls, as of this morning, has Clinton up about six.  It also shows the Dems picking up four seats in the U.S. Senate, which would be enough to capture the Senate if a Democratic vice president, acting as president of the Senate, breaks ties.
