Great Poll Numbers the MSM Keep Missing: Shy Trump, Trump Dems and the Blue State That Might Flip
RedState ^ | October 10, 2020 | Nick Arama

Posted on 10/10/2020 4:07:32 PM PDT by CheshireTheCat

MSM is pitching a lot of polls that might suggest that Joe Biden was ahead. You even have a CNN poll claiming that Biden was up 16 points.

But even Biden himself poo pooed that poll and said don’t be taken in by that, get out and vote.

Which means that Biden knows that that’s nonsense, and it’s much closer.

As I previously wrote, Biden wouldn’t be sending folks to Nevada and New Hampshire if he wasn’t seeing things that indicated a problem in those two states which previously were thought to be sure blue in his corner. Biden wouldn’t be suddenly activating people on the ground to go out and knock on doors in ‘battleground states’ if he didn’t think he desperately needed to do it, after doing nothing no reaching out to voters on the ground in person since March.

The MSM polls often have some major flaws: oversampling of Democrats, failure to account for the shy Trump vote and often using registered voters rather than likely voters.....

I drove all over parts of my county today and saw only 1 Trump/Pence sign. I saw a handful of conservative signs but those folks did not include signs for Trump. It concerns me, but, I have to remember it’s not like it was 4 years ago when only signs would be destroyed. Now, property destruction and doxxing is part of the package.

I can't put up a Trump sign in my neighborhood. At best my house would be vandalized and at worst burned down.

The strange thing is I'm not seeing a lot of Biden signs. Or Hickenlooper.

The polls show us a new type of irrational number...

Corporate MSM must have a huge stake in the outcome of this election.

The parent companies are replete with brilliant minds. And yet, we see the tolerance for such editorial malice.

Hard to imagine any blue states flipping. IIRC New Hampshire (4 EVs) and Minnesota (10 EVs) were close in '16. IMO the key should be holding FL,NC,PA,OH and MI. Holding WI and IA would be great but not essential.

Yes,I know...some Freepers will read this post and reply "You're such a coward.Trump will get 450 EVs next month".I understand that the President *deserves* 450 (or more) EVs...but we must acknowledge that massive voter fraud will be occurring nationwide and we must understand that the Rats are *very* good at that kind of thing and will be assisted by various state and Federal judges...perhaps even SCOTUS.

Just sayin'...

I disagree. They are not missing them, they are lying.

I live 15 minutes from Harvard Square (yah,*that* Harvard) and I've had my car vandalized many times for having conservative bumper stickers. I recently bought my dream car and I want it to serve me until I check into the nursing home so no bumper stickers. Yes,call me a coward...I suppose that might be deserved.

Exactly. This is going to be a real interesting election.

I think we might see a huge blowout against the communist democrats.

Lots of Biden ads and very few Trump ads on Boston TV. They’re running on Boston TV because the most heavily populated part of New Hampshire watches Boston stations and NH is a battleground state.

I had a convo with a friend last night, former Democrat. 2016 Crooked H voter. He basically all but told me he was voting Trump this time. I didn’t want to pressure him by asking him, but he was complaining about the same things I was re: riots. I feel like there are going to be a lot more of those people this time.

My father in law had an interesting take on bumper stickers. He was a strong Republican, but he never put stickers on his cars. He had retail small businesses in small towns and his reasoning was, why should I alienate half my customers?

Sounds reasonable.Your post reminds me of a quote once attributed to Michael Jordan. He was once asked why he never talked about politics. His response was “because Republicans buy sneakers too”.

Thank you! That makes me feel better. I also wish the conservatives would display the American flag but I don’t see a lot of those either. Mine waves 24/7/365.

Nope, living in that shit hole doesn't make you a coward, stupid, maybe but not a coward.

My friend of 60+ years lives in the Boston area and he bought his first ever gun this past summer.

He is a big time secret Trumper, but if he put out a Trump yard sign, some tolerant mass-ass would kill his dog and throw paint on his Vette.

That is exactly the experience I had a few days ago. A self-proclaimed “lifelong Democrat” decided that he had had enough of the riots and associated craziness. Unfortunately, as a resident of NJ, his vote won’t matter.
