    First off, some battleground states are moving towards Trump. OH and especially IA have moved pretty significantly over the last month. ...

    This suggests that even though this cycle will probably come down to the same battleground states as the last several elections (FL, OH, NV, VA) it may be the last election before a new set of battleground states emerges -- blue leaners that are mostly white (NH, WI) may fall back into the purple along with red leaners that are diverse (NC, GA, AZ). When we look at the former purples than have now become safe states (NM, CO, VA for blue; IN for red), a similar bifurcation is observed.
    You're surprised by any of this? If the Constitution is a "living, breathing document", shouldn't the electoral map be as well?

      Bad comparison. And of course the Electoral Map is changing all the time.

        If a document is not expected to be staid and unchanging, something completely people based shouldn't be either.

              It doesn't change. It's open to human interpretation. Humans are fallible and have bias by definition. The changing is the fact that societal norms change over time and what might have been true 150 years ago seems silly today.

                      It's somewhat implied when some are intrigued that the electoral map is changing.

                        Candidates families are generally off limits, but this is certainly a different kind of election year. So congrats to Donald Jr. for reminding us that the road apple doesnt' fall far from the tree.

                        Donald Trump Jr. said on Thursday that the media has built up Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, and that if Republicans acted the way Clinton has, the media would be “warming up the gas chamber” for them.

                          Being intrigued at how its changing doesn't mean you're intrigued that it is changing.

                          Time marches ever forward. Studying how things change over time doesn't imply that you're astonished that things change.

                            correct.

                            seems one can't say anything these days without offending some poor soul.

                              again, gas chambers weren't exclusively in use for those guys.
