This is a nice counterpoint to another thread posted today, which reports polling from Battleground States showing Kamala ahead in those states.

Why the add on to the title? I don’t get it because it does not appear in the X post.

23 July it was Trump +16.

Now it is Trump +4.

It’s amazing it’s this close.

Apparently corporate propaganda works.

Seriously though, these mainstream media polls haven't been this skewed since Hillary ran - and she had actual fans who actually voted for her.

This time around it's a total obfuscation to rope in the weasels who try to attach themselves to those they perceive as winning (undecided, low-information voters, Kardashian followers, etc.).

I didn’t notice that the X post even had a title.

Harris has peaked.

It will only go downhill from now on for her - the debate should put a fork in her aspirations to be POTUS.

All the push pollers have to do is change the numbers of the “poll” and notice there is never an explanation of what the Question asked surveyed.

So thus these are weighted polls— weighted in numbers toward potential demoncrat voters vs. likely republican voters (much lower number surveyed- both because they don’t answer polls and also because the poll is structured that way intentionally).

Think about what hitlery’s polls were (even her internals which we could not know) at this time in 2016 election. She was headed for a landslide so she thought.
Rasmussen is reasonably reliable and not a push poll. So many others— are paid pushing polls to get a headline.

Add-ons gonna Add-on.

Too many ignoring all sorts of posting protocols here, must be some kind of obscure badge of honor to be able to do so with impunity.

Like drivers blowing through STOP signs and red lights on Tampa, FL streets because they think traffic control is a violation of their stupid civil rights.

Actually you are right, but the bed wetter add on is no where in the X post and unclear as why it was added.

I trust the Rasmussen polls more than any others especially Fox polls who has Paul Ryan on their board of directors.

Perhaps Rasmussen is not a push poll, but it still suffers from the effect of “response bias”.

Trump supporters include more white blue-collar carnivorous males, and stay-at-home females, who are far, far less apt to participate in polls than the females and vegan males that dominate the ‘Rat party. Partly because they are too busy, partly because they associate pollsters with the fake news, partly because conservatives are wired to mind their own business and partly to protect their families and property from rabid Trump haters .

Pollster Richard Baris has been discussing this at great length - he says that because of this severe response bias, pollsters can’t fill up their Republican sample quota within the time and $$ constraints and must accept the skewed results.

Baris says the only way to overcome this bias is take more time and spend more money, and few pollsters are willing to do that.

Mark Mitchell (Rasmussen) and Baris have BOTH been on Warroom and discussed "response bias."

Also, Rasmussen is a likely voter poll but it looks encouraging (total n = about 2500)

polls are all over the place, I sense Trump is winning and will win the popular vote. Just a hunch, haven’t heard ONE positive comment about Kamala.

“Too many ignoring all sorts of posting protocols here, must be some kind of obscure badge of honor to be able to do so with impunity.”

Pathologically insecure keyboard blowhards. There are a handful here who appear incapable of making a post/comment that doesn’t contain at least one insult. Mods appear to be incapable/unwilling to deal with them. Must be great for donations.

How many Trump v Kamal debates will there be?

Team Kamal is going to try to evade or edit those hugely.

Best there be none. No one’s mind will be changed and every minute should be spent gathering ballots with ground forces and not thinking about providing entertainment.
