gehringer_2 Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 Campaign is over at our house, dropped off our ballots this afternoon. Have to give Harris and her team a lot of credit - so far a pretty flawless campaign - just need to bring it down the home stretch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last big push before Election Day is just the lube he needs to get deeper into the pockets of that glorious Wall St. money that he desires so much. As for the venue, that’s probably gratis between two buddies. If anything, JD is paying Trump to show up. The scary part is these are more signs that he doesn’t really care about winning the vote and he’s got other plans for how to get into the White House. He just needs a close enough finish to make whatever claims stick. I've been hypothesizing that even if Trump gets smoked by eight digits nationally, he can still claim fraud because the Democrat machine fixed the vote to look like a blowout, when everybody knows Trump wins every state if things are not very unfair.

Tiger337 Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 (edited) The polls haven't looked great for Harris this week. I know you can't tell anything from individual polls, but the aggregate seems to indicate that the post-debate momentum is gone and may be shifting back to Trump.

I am just not a Democratic party cheerleader like you. I am aware of which polls lean Republican and some of these polls have been accurate in the past. Overall, it's looking like a dead heat and that historically has been good news for Trump. I am hoping that the pollsters have made the proper adjustments and that Trump no longer outperforms the polls, but I am prepared for he possibility that they have not.

None of them have been accurate. Trafalgar got lucky in 2016 because they were off in the right direction. No non partisan poll in September showed Trump with a lead in Pennsylvania. Susquehanna, a quality Pennsylvania pollster, just showed a 9 point shift in a district Trump won. Let’s not forget Democrats have been outperforming polls ever since Dobbs and Trump underperformed in the primary. Oh wait, using actually elections makes me a cheerleader. I just need to piss my pants over polls we know are flawed like you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an aging white middle class male, the outcome of the election is not likely to affect me much either way other than having to watch half the males in the country jerk off to one of the dumbest people I've ever seen for the next four years. I am also concerned for the rest of the population. Harris is doing worse in the polls right now than Clinton in 2016 and Biden in 2020. That's a concern to me. What happened in 2022 may or may not be related to now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She isn’t losing Florida by 13. Besides, that poll had her up 3 nationally. If there was that big of a shift in Florida, that means she’s doing better in swing states. I also question Quinnipiac having Pennsylvania to the left of Michigan and Wisconsin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Political polling is becoming a house of cards of assumptions about your sample that are pretty much unverifiable until after the election is over.

Yeah, polls are less reliable than the used to be, but I'd still rather see Harris doing better than Trump in polling. I see this forum get very excited about good polls and then saying the polls are flawed or don't matter when it's bad news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
