Donald Trump is losing by 9 percentage points to rival Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire ― a state with a large percentage of white working-class voters who were expected to perhaps give the GOP presidential nominee a boost.
According to a new set of CBS News/YouGov battleground polls released Sunday, just 36 percent of New Hampshires likely general election voters support Trump, who swept the states Republican primary, while 45 percent back Clinton, who lost the state to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) by an astonishing 20 points in the Democratic primary.
-snip-
New Hampshire holds only 4 electoral votes, but as polls show Trump behind in several critical battleground states, he increasingly cant afford to lose the Granite State. Nate Silvers FiveThirtyEight polls-only and polls-plus model projects that if Clinton wins New Hampshire, it could push her to victory, even if she loses in major swing states like Ohio and Florida.
CBS/YouGov finds that Trump is losing badly among women in the state, and his chances for recovery in that demographic appear slim. Just 29 percent of New Hampshire women polled say they support Trump, while 51 percent support Clinton. In addition, 91 percent of the states female respondents say they are unlikely to change their minds.

Across the board you are seeing people in polls saying they have made up their minds. Trump has disqualified himself from the office he seeks for over 50% of the country, nothing is going to change that.

New Hampshire is the state I thought most likely to go to Trump, besides New York, because it's full of greedy assholes.

I have a hard time trying to understand why a candidate who is obviously a lying cheating psychopath would be in play in any state/
