Trying again: Ping for what you just said on another thread about getting involved.

FYI, some good news. Just heard a few minutes ago on RSBN that the broadcast team will soon be returning to Minnesota. Presumably to accompany the POTUS.

[Jane Long]

Thanks for the ping.

That is good news....POTUS (hopefully) returning to MN.

Just saw this, in an email I received today....any thoughts?

...What else are Pelosi and the Democrats up to? They are now competing hard in Nebraska, one of only two states that split their electoral votes. Eastern Nebraska includes Omaha, and that one electoral vote could make the difference in the electoral college. Obama-Biden won this electoral vote in 2008 and the latest polling shows the district to be a tossup. ....

Down to the wire, for Dems?

[Coop]

Obama won NE-02 with 50% of the vote in 2008, Romney took it with 52.8% four years later, then Trump won it 48.2 to 46.0% in 2016. Rep. Don Bacon only won by about 2 points in 2018, so the Dems are trying to flip 1 electoral vote from Trump to Biden (for a net of two) and flip Bacon's House seat to the Ds. Based on all the factors laid out in my thread intro, I expect Trump to improve upon his 2016 performance essentially nationwide. So I expect he'll hang on to this EV, and Bacon will probably win another close one.

[Jane Long]

Good deal. Thanks.

The conservative group that sent me the email are working overtime, in that (Omaha) area.

Cool, thanks.

[mainerforglobalwarming]

Thank you.

Well, I thought they were gonna keep MN quiet and sneak it in.

Hearing from a source inside the campaign (pretty high) that their metrics in NV are really good. Trump himself said twice they are up in FL, NC, OH AZ . .. didn’t mention PA, MI, or WI but it was Trump in his stream of consciousness.

Many of you asked about “ED.” Erectile Dysfunction.

]No, election day.

Look for my column at www.uncoverdc.com today. I will have info about MI and some other places.

[Alas Babylon!]

Thanks, Larry!

[Tobias Grimsley]

thanks LS...must not be up yet but will keep checking.

[Robert A Cook PE]

If the democrat internal polls held Biden in a 14 point landslide, the democrats would not be fighting for 1 single EV inside of Nebraska.

[pgkdan]

Yeah, this is a vanity… with data.

Yeah..a stinkin' vanity. But the best damned vanity I've read in ages!

Thanks for posting!

Thanks you very much for posting this .... I will be passing it on to some (elderly, which is part of the problem) folks in the family. They are the “woe is me” types and although they are happily voting Trump, I am sick of the gloom and doom every time a poll comes out or they read an anti-Trump screed in the local Leftist rag paper (we’re cancelling our subscription & getting curbside trash pickup instead .... seriously!).

[Qiviut]

I’ll post today’s article when you get it up.

[Impy]

I early voted this morning, first day (Chicago). In line an hour, incompetent voters + barely competent workers + “social distancing”.

[gogeo]

Excellent vanity, though.

[gogeo]

I have to believe PDJT won over a lot of supporters, and lost few if any.

We’ve seen that the ‘journalist’s discarded even a pretense of objectively and honesty. It’s how the Left rolls. It would be foolish to assume polling is on the up and up. Funky poll questions aside, it doesn’t take an advanced degree to see how the soup has been ‘spiced.’
