I agree and these rallies are for GOTV and get support for the down ticket. The media is controlled by the Soros/Chicom cabal even more so than 2016 and the level of lying is like nothing I have ever seen.

C'mon, man! CNN, MSNBC, and the rest of the bunch wouldn't lie!

Dems, Hidin' Biden has this in the bag. You can stay in your basements because you all know what Dr. Fauci has said - if you come out Rona will kill you! So, stay safe! Don't vote!

A close colleague/friend who is a dem told me that over a month ago he was told by someone in the Biden campaign that Biden’s internals did not show that big of a lead, at the same time the polls had him up by 10+. It was about the time Joe came out of the basement.

Joe’s up - maybe by 4 or 5 nationally, but I doubt by more, and I expect it to close by Nov 3. The key is turnout. The dems seem to be doing well, altho someone here posted that, at least in Texas, those who are voting now are the same ones who voted last time and in the ‘20 primaries.

Trump must do well in the debates, not by attacking Biden, but by pointing out all the good he has done in just four years - and he has been a very consequential President. Above all, it must not be a repeat of last time, which was frankly barely watchable.

Let others attack Hunter.

Speaking of interesting Twitter posts, this one suggests to me that voter turnout in PA so far is below expectations.

Interesting that 14.7% said they already voted in a poll completed last week versus 8.2% of 2016’s total votes in PA have voted as of today. The 3:1 split D vs R on already voted looks about right though”

God grant it so!

Bidet/Harryass are both so vile. How anyone could even contemplate voting for either of them blows my mind. But of course, liberals have no mind.

reminder:

Tweet: Ronna McDaniel @GOPChairwoman
Great data from @realDonaldTrump’s rally in Des Moines shows support the pollsters are missing:
10,139 voters identified
48.5% (!) NOT Republican
29.4% (!) Democrat
25.0% did not vote in 2016
13.7% did not vote in the last 4 elections
Thank you, Iowa!

I understand the high rejection rate though the article indicated that 90% of them are doubles....errors so they shouldn’t affect these expected vs. actual numbers. The 3:1 split D vs R on already voted looks about right though, as expected in the poll and in the reported results.

But, if only 8.2% of the 2016 total voter count has voted that would leave 91.8% more votes to come to reach the 2016 level.

But, since the poll supposedly measures the entire likely voter electorate regardless of when they were going to vote and it indicated that 14.7% of them already had voted which would leave 85.3% more votes expected to come to match the 2016 level, what explanation could there be for the shortfall except that voting is below expectations.

Any thoughts?
