<u+201c>as far as michigan is concerned, i mean we have to look at our our data. <u+2026> it matches public polling. it's an absolute toss-up,<u+201d> priebus said. | getty by jeremy herb 11/06/16 10:36 am est republican national committee chairman reince priebus says michigan is an <u+201c>absolute toss-up<u+201d> state as donald trump<u+2019>s campaign seeks to expand the electoral map in the final days of the campaign. the republican presidential nominee is headed to michigan on sunday, and democrat hillary clinton will be campaigning there on monday, although the state hasn<u+2019>t voted for a republican in a presidential race since the 1980s. story continued below <u+201c>as far as michigan is concerned, i mean we have to look at our our data. <u+2026> it matches public polling. it's an absolute toss-up,<u+201d> priebus said sunday on abc<u+2019>s <u+201c>this week.<u+201d> <u+201c>when you look at a place like michigan, where jobs have gone to mexico and china and people are out of work and people want things to get better, i think donald trump is offering that vision for the state of michigan,<u+201d> he added. priebus also suggested on <u+201c>this week<u+201d> that colorado <u+2014> another blue state that<u+2019>s faded as a battleground this election <u+2014> could be an opportunity for a trump upset. <u+201c>it is a jump ball in colorado,<u+201d> he said. by daniel strauss trump<u+2019>s pathway to 270 electoral votes becomes much easier on tuesday if he can peel off a traditionally blue state like michigan, colorado or wisconsin. the clinton campaign has responded that it<u+2019>s confident it will keep those states in her column. <u+201c>we win a state like michigan, and, as you know, it's all over,<u+201d> priebus said. <u+201c>if i would have told you a year ago that we have a candidate that can win florida, ohio and michigan, we would say that's a candidate that's going to win.<u+201d> by michael grunwald by bill scher by thomas wright by joshua zeitz
