A new poll has found that Democrats and Republicans are neck and neck in the upcoming midterm elections, with Democrats citing gun violence as their number one concern even as the economy continues to tumble.

The Sienna College Research Institute poll, conducted on behalf of the New York Times between July 5 and 7 among 849 registered voters, found the race to control Congress is tight, with voters preferring Democrats to Republicans by just one percentage point, 41%-40%. Nineteen percent of respondents remain undecided.

However, among likely voters, the Times noted that 44% favored Republicans while 43% expressed support for Democrats in congressional races.

But they won’t. For many years, I never understood fully “The Party of Stupid”.

I do now.

Polls are largely run by left wing organizations who simply cannot bring themselves to face any reality other than their own. They will simply not allow a possibility that a majority of people don’t see the world as they do.

When they say “Neck & Neck” do they mean Giraffe neck compared to a RATS neck?

This people are so predictable.

This sort of poll has several purposes, none of them providing accurate data.

* Energize the Dem base that all is not lost.
* Discourage the Republican base.
* Attempt to get more ad dollars from the campaigns.

What does ‘slow witted’ have to do with a poll? Either you
are for or against, no slow, in between or maybe, let’s see.

When do they run polls saying the Dems are being destroyed? The NY Times is such a source of truth.

Fox News is as evil as the rest of the Antichrist media. They are controlled opposition.

It’s BS.

Ok, but tell us why you believe that. Do you have any facts to back your statement up?

Well, the 849 registered democrat voters I talked to all day the GOP is dead. Oh, and economy isn’t the biggest issue and neither is inflation or crime or open borders or gas prices or Covid restrictions. It’s the environment. Everyone agrees with everyone who is everyone that it is.

This opinion brought to you by Siena College and the New York Times who represent all that is mainstream. Trust em, why not?

Richard Baris, who is very accurate, took this poll apart today; it has been manipulated to achieve the desired result - the same poll showed Biden beating Trump 44-41 when the cretin has a 29 percent approval rating.

The bureaucracy needs a plausible story to deflect from fraud, stuffing, cheating, and boxes of absentee ballots in trunks of rental cars.

Because it’s always the same spiel. And just before the election they adjust their numbers slightly to gain some credibility. By why not do it sooner, up front? Perhaps it’s because they want to shape opinion and not reflect it.
