The people who were sweating the Dem favored Quinnapiac poll need to calm down
Before you had to motivate people to go vote and Republicans were generally more likely to go stand in line. Now that you don’t even have to leave your house to vote it gives Dems (the lazy party) a better chance to win. That’s of course ignoring how easy ballot box stuffing is now.
Good catch: at one time, candidates had to motivate people to go stand in line to vote.
Now, thanks to streamlined voter fraud, you don’t even have to leave your house to vote Democrat.
IOW, the race is over before it even starts.
5 points is not narrow. That’s millions of votes.
If Biden were up by 5, they would be saying it’s over, he wins in a landslide.
It was telling that Biden took all the credit for the SC win.
He made no mention of Kamala’s assistance since
she addressed SC State U right before the primary.
Well, maybe Biden “just forgot” Kamala has adopted a
“we’re-joined-at-the-hip” political strategy, never
failing to mention “Biden-Harris did that” in every sentence.
Course, Biden may also be responding to Kamala’s
intimating to USC she’s “dropping out” of politics.
Which got a resounding cheer from students.
How in the world can 42% of voters support the utter destruction of everything good in the USA?
It is an eternal mystery why these destructors don’t poll at 5%.
From what I have read Dems always outnumbered Republicans but republicans won because their voters actually went out to vote and Dems couldn’t be bothered. Now you can just home and the mailman picks up your ballot.
I mull this over with my family almost every day - with people struggling financially as they are, inflation roaring, high gas prices and rent (especially in California) - and the southern border wide open with criminals, drugs and cartels freely crossing.
How could ANYONE vote for more of this? Especially our young people.
Yeah, your ballot and the ballot sent to anyone and everyone who ever lived at that address, living or dead.
(assuming elections are real)
Yes. My sister and I debate this a lot, too (we talk about once a week). We each have three kids in early to mid thirties. We have two girls and one boy; she has two boys and one girl. Two of the girls are rabid, insane libs. Two of the boys and one of the girls are apolitical and we aren’t sure where they stand. One of the boys is a Marine and was active in the Corps for five years serving in Japan and the Philippines. He is very conservative.
To your list, add endless wars, a military rated “Weak,” greeniacs killing fossil energy and gas and electricity tripling in price, war against agriculture.
Five of our six combined kids do not have a clue what’s going on.
And voter turnout for some races still is less than 40%
And if you try to talk to your kids they become defensive, right?
A can of green beans that was $1.00 is now $1.59 while being on the fake “sale” price from $1.69, and the can is now half water.
Americans are frogs in a pot cooking on the stove. Barely half have any idea that their lives are being ruined.
They couldn’t be bothered to stand in line at the polls,
now Democrats can just stay home and the Dem vote fraud
machine goes into action....directs the mailman where to pick up their ballots.
AND, The Stupid Party does not know how to communicate.
SC was a test run for the Dem voter fraud apparat.
Seems there’s work to do,
You know it!
They cannot discuss from knowledge, experience, or a historical precedent perspective so they go crazy.
My niece is the worst. She and my sister often get into shouting matches that get really ugly. My sister spent a decade teaching inner city black kids and poor Appalachian kids math. She loved those kids and many of them thanked her for her dedication and commitment in later years. Yet my know-it-all niece accuses my sister of being a racist! My niece has never done a single thing to help other races and has never done any inner city work or volunteered!
My conservative nephew is an avid history buff and makes historical analogies and parallels all the time. He and I chat about various political news items.
I’ve learned to not discuss anything remotely political with my kids to keep harmony in the family.
In many years of paying close attention, this is the very first time I have seen the margin of error correctly stated by the media (even pollsters on TV fail to point this out when another guest misstates it) - that it applies to each result, not the margin between results.
Maybe three or four FReepers who reply to posts also have demonstrated the correct understanding; overwhelming majority do not.
Of course a 5 point lead is within the margin of error when the latter is 3.1 points.
Similarly, TV talking heads oohing and ahhing that “he picked up 2 points from last month’s poll” reflect a total ignorance of how margin of error works.
What is sad is ...our children and grandchildren are really going to suffer if things do not change...
