Like they did in 2016?

Tater Swuft’s Tater Tots to the rescue!

They didn’t cheat hard enough then, so they overcompensated in 2020. Now they have to be a bit more restrained that more attention is being paid.

The only polls I’d trust are Trump’s internals.

Now I ask you, does Trump look worried about his polling...?

There’s 400 million dollars cash out there Que-Mala has to spend. Pollsters know this and they also know she’s not going to spend it on ‘bad news.’

Why are so many senators that the article talked to (except Fetterman) demanding anonymity?

[Lockbox]

Democrats lie about the vote, we lie to the pollsters…. At least ours is legal!

>>>Democrats fear pollsters are undercounting Trump.

So Trump’s win will be higher? Hey pollsters it’s easy to lie on polls.

It's like an Elvis Costello song.

I don't think their worries are about the under-counting in the polls.

They worry that Kamala doesn't even belong in the race and should never have been promoted to being the candidate.

Democrats need to find a series of forums and interviews and press conferences and debates, if they want to elevate her to being a true candidate. Too late for any of that, so, they're stuck lying about being worried.

Polling was created to sway opinion, not reflect it.

We need a second debate... LMFAO. Winners don’t need second debates... Losers do.

[mom.mom]

They need to fake the polls so their massive cheat will appear plausible.

[jerod]

There have been times when that ‘swaying’ has failed miserably.

I remember the 1980 presidential election... Reagan and Carter were ‘tied’ neck and neck, according to pollsters who on election day morning appeared on network shows explaining ‘how close it would be’, with electoral charts showing Reagan and Carter almost tied...

Reagan won with 489 electoral votes, to Carter’s 49 electoral votes... A blowout of astronomical proportions in comparison to recent Presidential elections.

To me, the recent Teamsters membership poll is the most significant poll of this election cycle so far. Surely the Teamsters leaders can poll their membership with greater accuracy than any media national or state poll.

The Teamsters rank-and-file chose Trump over Harris by 60% to 34%. That's almost 2 to 1 in favor of Trump. The Teamsters union is 1+ million nationwide, and from all demographic groups (although probably more male than the general population?).

This is a major sign that could indicate a HUGE undercount of Trump support in the media polls.

Same thing happened in 1984. Polls were showing the Reagan-Mondale race was tight. It was very late in the game before Reagan pulled away, according to the media polls.

I suspect Trump is doing better than what the polls are saying. But I am concerned about illegals voting and the ability of Democrats to “find” ballots late in the night.

[going hot]

....and here I thought the kam was steaming ahead, kicking ass, taking names, supported by anyone who is anyone.

Who to believe?

These polls be like willows in the wind.
