Nevada, Arizona, and Florida. http://www.pewhispanic.org/2016/01/19/lo...lectorate/Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada, and Florida voted Dem in the last election. So it simply doesn't matter in the Presidential election if everyone in those States vote Dem in this election.
Based on the 2012 election the Dems would have to pick up over 212,000 votes to swing Arizona Blue.
Right now Hillary is losing votes compared to where she was in 2008. Since there are more voters now than there was in 2008 she should have gained some more instead of losing them. She's going to get the nomination but expect her to get her ass handed to her in November.

Oh, and in Texas Hillary needs to pick up over 1,261,000 new votes to out vote the Repubs based on the 2012 election. Good luck with that.
Yes, those states are the crucial states because they are swing states. Romney lost the election because he lost them. Trump is set to lose them. AND if he loses them it will cost him the election.
Texas won't be in play 2016, but give them another four years and they will be.
