Surprise, surprise.
Looks like 2016, Democrat wins popular vote by a couple points but Trump wins electoral
Where is that posting I said IBD would get within 3%???
Its around here somewhere!!!
It's unprecedented.
Normally the challenger is zig-zagging around the country giving large rallies and never turning down a chance to speak to media.
As the election gets closer all the companies who have been running fake polls up to now try to be at least a little more honest. They are still all in for Biden, but they don’t want to completely destroy themselves in the process.
On election eve the polls will show the race in a dead heat.
They will still be wrong as the President sweeps to re-election, but it gives their junk a fig leaf.
This election will depend on GOP election day turnout in swing states. We need close to 90% turnout.
Because President Trump is effectively the challenger, the outsider, the “change.”
The demokkkrats made a mistake nominating a 5-decade swamp lizard to be the “challenger” to the Washington establishment.
Well, would you look at that. It’s almost like they poll numbers magically correct themselves as we get closer to the election. LOL.
If Trump is solidly re-elected, as I expect he will be, this is going to be the main reason cited. A younger, more energetic candidate - even if further to the Left - would have given Trump much more of a challenge.
This reminds me of the hopelessness I felt in 1996, when the GOP put up a Dole/Kemp ticket to run against the incumbent Clinton. What an opportunity lost to unseat that jerk and kill Hillary's budding political aspirations. Unlike Biden, Dole was basically a good man, but definitely well past his prime (Viagra ads notwithstanding) and he just oozed that career politician "my turn" vibe that turned so many young voters off.
“If Trump is solidly re-elected, as I expect he will be,...”
From your lips to God’s ear.
We pray three times a day for the president’s convincing win.
Meaning, Trump will win both the electoral and the popular vote.
