NEW YORK - As Republican President Donald Trump seeks a second term in November, Americans’ interest in voting is growing faster in large cities dominated by Democrats than in conservative rural areas, according to an analysis of Reuters/Ipsos national opinion polls.
If the trend lasts until Election Day on Nov. 3, it would be a reversal from the 2016 election when rural turnout outpaced voting in urban areas, helping Trump narrowly win the White House.
The finding, based on responses from more than 88,000 U.S. adults who took the online poll from August to December 2015 or from August to December 2019, suggests that the “Blue Wave,” a swell of anti-Trump activism that followed his entry into the White House in 2017, is still rolling across the country’s largest population centers.
Even as Trump commands rock-solid support among Republicans, voters’ interest in going to the polls appears to be growing faster among those who disapprove of Trump than among those who approve of him, according to experts who reviewed the data.
The advantage in urban political engagement extends deep into the most competitive battleground states that Trump won by razor-thin margins four years ago, the data shows.
In large urban areas of the upper Midwest, a region that includes swing states Michigan and Wisconsin, for example, the number of people who said they were “certain” to vote in the upcoming presidential election rose by 10 percentage points to 67% compared with survey responses from 2015.

Without question.
NEVER overestimate the intelligence, or underestimate the ignorance of the average American voter.
Reuter’s poll of Adults
When you see a poll of “adults” you know it’s a BS poll especially from Reuters
Translation: The Fraud machine is cranking
Way to think ahead, Dems.
On election night, pundits will cite this story as an explanation for all those inner-city votes found in car trunks, mop closets, etc.
How energized and motivated they were!
110%, 120, 130% of registered voters!
It’s a blue wave!
Yes, we should all just give up - voting is futile! Sigh. Amazing how the playbook never seems to change with these folks.

New Hampshire Trump turnout...
In other words, the dead and “absentee” will be voting 10 times instead of the usual 4 or 5.
Not sure how it can grow so fast when most urban districts are already showing near or above 100% voter participation
More to the point, the urban areas are where Democrats expend most of their vote fraud efforts. I'd view this "poll" as groundwork for that sort of cheating.
So Trump is “way behind” all the Rat candidates — again.
Right.
classic push poll

Yeah... it’s a year closer to the election than it was in 2015. And a lot of disaffected minorities are perhaps voting for Trump, rather than staying home.
It has a fresh rain forest scent.
You post this yet make no comment about your position on the subject or where you stand
Interesting, very interesting
Yeah, right. Get back to me when you have a candidate. No matter who gets the nomination, 30% of your electorate will stay at home rather than support the nominee.
Hilarious. An online poll, probably mostly Reuters liberals, and the number of responders has dropped 30%. But the percentage of responders who say they will vote is higher. LOL.
Poll has been hijacked by activists.
Democrat candidate rallies (except for Bernie) are weak. Trump rallies have overflow crowds. Primary in New Hampshire had a huge Republican turnout when Trump was the obvious winner. Reuters is nuts.
Setting the stage for massive voter fraud. While the rest of the country has record turnout for Trump at 65-70%, the cities will miraculously hit 95-105% due to their Blue Wave.
Right at the heights of the impeachment panic. . . Right. . . And this is News NOW? Whaat makes this news now? Not a damn thing except that Main Stream News needs something to make it seem as if there is a Blue Wave Surging, when there really is not.
Besides, how is an increase in inner cities going to help win the Electoral College? Merely increasing the vote count in districts in same places they’d win anyway won’t add to the Electoral College vote by even one vote. That’s why they Democrats are so desperate to get their movement to require states to award electoral college delegates to the national popular vote winner despite what their state’s voters may choose, even if that is unconstitutionally in disagreement with the guaranty of a Republican form of government. Heads I win, Tails you lose. . . For Democrats. . . A backdoor method to create a pure democracy which the Framers were fearful would destroy the Constitution.
