The Senate polls are grossly wrong

Recent history, from 2014 to 2020, 4 different election cycles there have been 48 "close" Senate elections. Close enough that substantial polling was done on the races.

Of those 48 elections:

8 times the Democrat was underestimated in the polls, by an average of 1.8%

40 times Republicans were underestimated by the polls, by an average of 5%

So basically 40 of the last 48 competitive Senate races the Republicans outperformed their polls, usually by a huge margin.

This year is the first time he's been ahead in the polls before election day. He's been behind by large percentages previously.

And his opponent is as left as AOC. Johnson will win WI easily.

Wouldn't do much good for the GOPe to narrowly win the Senate though, at this point in time. It would kinda be a waste when the House and Senate would both pass bills to forward to Biden that he just wouldn't sign off on. I'd honestly be fine with just a commanding majority in the House, of actual America First representatives.

Then again, I guess it would be ok to gain a slight majority to build upon for [Trump or Desantis] to continue building upon in 2024.

I don't know, I'm just tired and rambling. America really just needs to make this turnip in the oval office into a lame duck for two years, because the damage he's done in his first two years is honestly making Jimmy Carter feel like he did a great job

You arent thinking very hard

The fat latina on the Supreme Court could literally die at any moment

If things keep falling apart will definitely retire before 2024

The Senate matters

No wonder it isnt a landslide. People are so fricking stupid.

Oz is losing, so will Johnson, the Dems will keep the Senate and likely gain 1 or 2 seats.

October is going to be very bad economically.
A recession has been accepted by all but the mouth breather Dems. Right now, the markets are falling apart across the world.

And the number one issue for damn near everyone, is the economy.

But sure, the Dems are coming from a position of strength. Everyone is feeling great.

They (the Uniparty) had to cheat their asses off to get an old senile bastard to be POTUS. And things in the country have gotten worse for EVERYONE.

The Polls are outdated, incorrect, and obviously lying.

That said, the people who run polls could probably tell us more about actual cheating than any other people in our country.
But then they wouldn't get paid...

I think the polls are actually overstating his support. Defunding the police, not paying his taxes, releasing 10K criminals from prison, etc etc doesn't really fly in WI. Johnson has said some dumb things but this guy is wayyyyy out there.

I had a Mandela ad in my FB feed earlier today so I checked some of the comments.

It wasn't good for Barnes. lolzzz

*Being buried with political ads here and it's funny as hell at times. Barnes will come on saying he knew the GOP would lie about him wanting to defund the police, etc. Next up is a Johnson ad showing Barnes stating he wants to defund the police with both audio and visual. (Him with a defund the police tshirt)
