Biden's Pennsylvania polling lead may not be what it seems
Washington Examiner ^ | 10/02/2020 | Naomi Lim

At first glance, 2020 Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden seems well positioned should his Nov. 3 election against President Trump come down to Pennsylvania.

Biden averages a 5 percentage point lead on Trump in Pennsylvania, according to RealClearPolitics and FiveThirtyEight. And just this week two polls fielded among likely voters in the state found the two-term vice president challenger with a 9-point advantage on the incumbent.

I’m 45, and have never been polled in my life.
I’ll be there Nov. 3rd doing my part.

Hard to believe PA will support a candidate that supports the green new deal. The election season can’t get over soon enough.

There’s at least one Hillary voter in my family voting third party this time. No one has any enthusiasm for Biden.

I'm ancient and have only been polled once in my life. I'll be there Nov 3rd doing my part. If I can't walk, I'll have someone wheel me. If I am dead, I have plans to vote from the grave - multiple times. That is every dead Pennsylvania's God-given right.

Pittsburgh and Philadelphia are both Demorat strongholds who push the greenage junk. Then you have the educational system shoving it down peoples throats.

But I’m not convinced people vote based on environmental issues apart from a few people still living in the 60’s generation mindset.

last week I spent six hours driving around Pittsburgh, Mount Lebenon, Bethel Park, Library, McKeesport, Butler and saw maybe a dozen,(tops) Biden yard signs, and about a thousand Trump signs,..... I cannot believe Biden could honestly be polling higher.

Why do we post these fake polls? Sad we never learn. All these are designed to do is have the psychos on our side cry how we are going to lose, which is what they want. Now people who do not know better will think we lost and will not donate $ to a losing cause and or not vote. If you know nothing about the political strategy of the Marxist stop responding to these fake polls. They do this every election and have for 50 years. There are always those who fall for them and spread doom and gloom like cancer.

Can anyone with a straight face say Biden will out perform Hillary among women and minorities?

It’s impossible for me to believe that Trump has lost support among his 2016 voters.

James Carville once said that Pennsylvania was Philadelphia and Pittsburgh with Alabama in between.

I used to be polled all the time. Even Nielsen found me. Don’t know why but I do know if most people polled are used by others orgs, it’s not a random sample. These days I turn down polls.

Maybe get tested for covid? Joking aside, Trump’s going to WIN!

Not only is Trump going to take PA, he is going to take Nevada.

I saw a poll about a month ago that claimed President Trump has the support of 27% of the blacks in Pennsylvania.

If that level of support amongst black voters translates into actual votes for the president, I don’t see how Biden wins Pennsylvania.

And Trump is down in Florida, Michigan, Arizona, NC and even Montana!

Why do you idiots post this crap? I feel like FR has really turned into some Onion Site of DU. JR is absent, I think he died years ago and some tranny DUer in his stepmom's basement really runs the show here.

Making a proclamation, I am outta here. I feel I lose IQ points when I fence with some of you. A few thoughtful posters here, but most of you are mouthbreathing losers who are probably going to die negative and ignorant. Place used to be good.

Site sucks anyways and is overrun with trolls while the MODS jerkoff to Hentai octopus porn.

Godpseed some of you with working frontal cortex, but to most you ...well no helping you.

In before the ban
