Survey of 2,500 Likely Voters was conducted September 30, October 1 and 4-6, 2020 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 2 percentage points.
Turns out the virus was already in him during the debate.
Actually, I was responding to the various Freeper comments about lots of Biden ads and no Trump ads in key states. If that is not accurate, then it will be better.
He no longer owns the company.
Rasmussen sold the polling company. It’s not “him” most of the time. He does polls under his own name, not the company. I know...it’s confusion. He needs to hire a branding company.
I don’t think that it’s that. Looking at these numbers, I think that the more likely scenario is that Biden took a huge jump in a bunch of these polls taken right around the Wuhan Coronavirus scare because people weren’t (and perhaps still aren’t) sure if Trump was even going to be ok.
Ok, but when you dig into the CBS/ You Gov Poll,Biden is getting 75 percent of blacks and only 52 percent of Hispanics.
Meanwhile, I was looking at the Trafalgar battleground polls, which were accurate in 2016. Playing with the RCP map to remove tossups and then apply adjust battleground states according to the Trafalgar poll yielded a 269-269 tie.
However, that is partly because I left Iowa blue due to Biden’s narrow RCP average lead there and the lack of a Trafalgar poll there. I think Trump is probably winning Iowa.
Still, the possibility of a tie is there. Those Congress elections are important. If you have Republican friends who are staying home because they simply cannot bring themselves to vote for Trump, at least get them out to vote Republican for Congress.
The optics are never going to favor DJT. You just have to accept that. I’m about as down on his possibilities as I’ve been....probably as down as I was shortly after the Access Hollywood October surprise of 2016. Part of that may just be the sobering thoughts brought about by considering the alternative. Expecting the best, preparing for the worst. That’s about all I can do. I’m in Oregon, so going out and hustling up votes means nothing. Let Trump be Trump.
Will go back to importing millions of illegals to replace ius, shipping manufacturing back to China, Obamacare raised from the dead, Christian persecution. Hard to think about. Everyone I know loathes Biden // Harris. I hope the poll is wrong. Keep praying, donating and working!
I think so too. Trump needs to get negative and talk about pedo Joe and his gun grabbing.
Last week, following Trump’s announcement that he was nominating federal Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court, Biden moved from a narrow one-point lead to eight points ahead.
So the biggest part of the drop occurred after nominating ACB. Not that I necessarily believe that (especially with the fact that they also say that only 76% republicans say they will vote for Trump, or with Zogby's recent poll showing essentially a dead heat), but we should be discussing if the nomination really affected the race so much rather than other issues.
“He said these polls are meant to suppress Republican voter turnout”
I believe that would be polls by businesses that do not make their living doing polls (i.e. CNN, FOX, NBC, CBS).
Rasmussen Reports is an American polling company whose very income depends on the credibility of their work.
The corporate media (especially the liberal media) do not feel the need to be accurate with their polls. They sell advertisement to make their money.
Trump is losing among white women. Don’t get why, but he is. And his opponent continues to be COVID 19. I hate to say it people want safety over freedom. Look at pretty much any country and they vanquished COVID months ago. The USA has not put in that final punch. Florida still a hot spot.
Rasmussen sold his polling company.
That’s true but this Rasmussen poll (if true) puts Trump well below the margin of fraud.
It’s a wonder they can actually repeat these numbers with a straight face! There’s no world where Joe Biden is leading POTUS. The worst candidate ever!
They'll love all of that safety when Antifa and BLM demand they give them their house.
I suspect that the people who bought the company specifically paid for the brand confusion.
They want it to be associated with the old Scott Rasmussen polls. And who knows what Scott is contractually allowed to say about the brand.
Pollster Who Shows Trump Ahead Nationally Says Florida Is Almost Out of Reach for Biden – Trump is Doing Great
Hilarious. These leftists are so damn obvious.
Let’s just throw out something...anything...see what sticks. lol
