It's interesting to note on RCP's site (losers) that Oct. 14, 2016 marked the last day RCP was willing to engage their polling fraud, and subsequently, Trump moved into a statistical dead-heat on Oct. 17, then pulled ahead in Ohio to stay.
When the truth of it was, Trump was always ahead in Ohio and increased his lead in the last 2 weeks.
Two things to take from that.
One, Trump's MonsterVote is once again right under the surface, purposefully ignored by polling, but ready to pounce.
Two, some of these polling firms are not down for der shtruggle, ie, the agitprop that 'Joe was so far ahead in polling that we have to count every vote for months despite Trump keeping all his #2016 states by unassailable margins on Election Night.'
So now what we're going to have from here to Election Day, is grossly divergent polling results with the Charlie Cooks (a longtime Biden kneepadder and all-in for the schtruggle) versus other younger national pollsters -- the Nates and Dave Wasserman (a Cook employee who often contradicts Cook) and of course Rasmussen -- who can't afford to smear their brand for the long term.
Overconfidence is not a very good campaign strategy. Only the paranoid survive. I’m just telling you what I’m seeing on the ground.
Exactly what I would expect in an upper middle-class ‘burb. Trump is, in general, not palatable in areas you describe and most supporters there wouldn’t dare put up Trump signage. The Republican party is changing. Partially due to Trump but it started before him..... I digress.
I’ve seen a few more signs for the professional fool around suburbs of Columbia, SC. Maybe 10 or 12 total.
6 on the same solid middle class road. A small block.
One is a veterans for Biden. All the others are generic.
I concur with that. In addition, about a month before, I saw an interview with Hillary spokesman asking why she wasn’t in OH and appeared to have given up on it. They claimed they hadn’t and was still planning on Hillary going back to OH. They knew it was gone, but they also didn’t need OH anyway. As long as they could hold PA, she would win. They never thought about WI and MI, heck they were still going for the jugular by visiting in FL a week before the election
Trump won Ohio by 9 points in 2016, NINE POINTS. He will win by more this time.
Again, as it gets closer to the election, these polls have to get nearer to reality to avoid embarrassment to people like Quinnipiac.
I live in an upper middle class suburb too. I can show you about 5 Biden signs, total.
I personally know four people who will be voting for Biden: my lesbian daughter and her “wife”, and my two other daughters because their sister threatened to never speak to them again if they don’t.
The lesbian is convinced the SCOTUS is going to reverse itself on gay marriage, and she is frantic.
Have GOP signs up and pledged my vote to GOP canvasser
But when I got a MSM poll call here in central Wisconsin told em was undecided
I agree, and watching Biden's people eat the dookie cookie on Election Night will prove every letter.
There were exactly 2 people who told Cankles to her face that MI/WI were wobbly -- Jake Sullivan and Bubba. They don't sleep together in the same room (for decades) and were rarely home together in Chappa (Bubba works out of Manhattan and irregularly DC).
Anyway, afterwards, Jake was literally banned from the front of the campaign plane, and simultaneously, Podesta engaged Huma (and then after the Weiner scandal, Jennifer Palmieri) to continually instruct Cankles to ignore Bubba.
They literally gaslighted that dumb bitch using their 'super-strategic targeted-to-the-9th-zip-code-number' polling and then propping off that with, "It's 2016, Bill is stuck in polling methods from 20 years ago (1996)."
The thing I wonder about when it comes to the signs for Biden—since he has not door-to-door campaigners and people are afraid to go out to any D rallies (I blame the Karens who wear masks while driving), is his campaign pushing the signage really hard this year as a way to make up for the lack of other channels?
Your daughters do realize they can tell their sister they voted for Biden and not actually vote for him, don’t they?
THIS POLL HAS BIDEN UP 6%....
IN FREAKIN GEORGIA!!!!
Effing nonsense.
Yup. Total agitprop.
I’d tell them to be very vague.
Of all the states that Trump “stole” from Obama I think that FL,PA and MI are the ones to worry about...maybe NC as well. One reason to worry about three of the four is that they all have Rat Governors and we all know what that means in terms of mail in voter fraud.
Excellent.
I have a lot of extended family in Ohio. Quite a few cousins and their children, nieces, and nephews. They are almost all Trump supporters. And they live in the leftist bastion of Cuyahoga county. It’s honestly shocking how conservative they are despite living where they do. One of my Trump supporting cousins is a police officer for the city of Cleveland. Many of these people I know for a fact were raised as Democrats, just like most of my family. Now they back Trump.
I know a LOT of people in Ohio and they all say Trump support remains strong. From their mouth to God’s ear.
I hope they don’t deliver us to Bidet-Harryass this time around.
They should.
