Clinton has a 79 percent shot of winning, contrasted and Trump's 20 percent, as per FiveThirtyEight's estimate.
"We're at halftime of the race at this moment," Silver said. "She's taking a 7-point, possibly a 10-point lead into halftime. There's a great deal of football left to be played. She's ahead in practically every survey, each swing express, every national survey."
Silver said "both hopefuls have a ton of space to develop," yet the main late contender to blow a lead like the one Clinton holds was Massachusetts' then-Gov. Michael Dukakis in 1988.
"Trump has never been in front of Clinton in the general decision crusade," Silver said. "He made an incredible showing with regards to of engaging the 40 percent of the GOP he needed to win the decision, the essential — a considerable measure unique in relation to winning 51 percent of 100 percent."
Silver called 49 states effectively in the 2008 presidential decision and got every one of the 50 in 2012.

Yawn! No surprise there. It would be difficult for a candidate to do a worse job than Trump has already done. That being said, Clinton is terrible as well. Clinton will ensure that the powerful will become more powerful. 2 terrible choices. That anyone would beat Trump....are we supposed to be surprised about that? zzz Either way, we lose. :(
