mtutiger Posted Monday at 03:26 PM Share Posted Monday at 03:26 PM Just now, romad1 said: Walz effect Maybe partly him, but I just get the sense in general that Trump is having issues in rural areas... Like, they aren't going to revert to 2012 levels of Dem support or anything like that, but that he could lose a few percentage points in some of these states anyway. And that would matter a lot, particularly in the northern swing states. Some of Kamala's campaign choices in PA, going to Johnstown and Wilkes-Barre, places that have swung hard right since Trump showed up on the scene, tells me they are seeing something as well in their own data Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewsieg Posted Monday at 04:21 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:21 PM Sorry if this was posted already, haven't been on here much recently. I just learned that apparently a young boy was killed in an accident by a Haitian immigrant in Springfield and in part this is what the right riled up their base as they exaggerated the incident. This is his dad speaking recently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaska has a Democratic congresswoman, one of the most moderate Republicans in the senate, a Democratic majority in the senate, and has moved to the left every single election for the past 20 years. Not sure why you wouldn't poll Alaska, especially with a competitive congressional race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might call that the right kind of response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprising - a state that is separated from the contiguous US is bound to approach politics differently. I definitely think it's fair to think that Alaska could be approaching lean R status though... Trumpism isn't a great fit for the demographics of the state.

It's the inverse of what you think a blue state is. The rurals are blue and the cities are red. With suburban areas moving left, you are seeing the shift in Anchorage. It probably will never happen, but I would try to lure Murkowski to switch parties. Peltola showed a Democrat can win there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
