How does Kennedy affect this? Or did they not ask?

Welp… time for a new candidate, Dims

Keep replacing until you find one that polls well

Hope it's true, but CNBC was reporting a poll showing Trump only +2.

I am certain of one thing----there is a 0.00000000% chance of Trump winning a majority of the national vote. Plurality, sure, but smaller now that its Kamala.

No shot whatsoever at a majority.

The polls in the battleground states are what’s important

What?

The Dems lost 5?

CNN told me she would immediately close the gap to 1. She energized the party. They were coalescing around her. She can go toe-to-toe with the Orange One. She's proven she can be on the international stage. I'm with her.

None of these polls will matter until things settle down. Only after the nominee is somewhat settled, and about $100 million in advertisement has been spent, will the polls be germane.

On the weekend before Trump/Biden, all of the major networks were showing polls in the swing states. Most were in range of 6-10% favor of Biden.

Trump won some of those and Biden won a couple due to the shenanigans. I remember at time thinking that I’ll never pay attention to another poll. Whether I like the fictitious percentages or not. I still believe that was meant to reduce Trump voters from casting their votes.

I do think we should point out those that have been way off so people don’t falsely think they mean something.

The funny thing is that Manchin would probably win but they told him to frick off. They've ideologically cornered themselves, and they already knew this which is why Biden ended up being the nominee in 2020. No one capable of winning the general is making it out of Chicago.

I disagree. Dems dont like Kamala and the left media is dilusional. Heard one on Progress(sirusxm) talking about how great she is and that she was a prosecutor and will attack Trump.

Harris got 1% polling average in the 2020 primary and was the 1st to drop out.

That before or after they factor in your vote for her?

Is this the first poll with Trump breaking 50%? Heard some hacks yesterday saying he’s in trouble since he wasn’t over 50%.

Popular vote is as important as tits on a boar in this country.

If Trump has his normal states, is leading in Penn, Wiscy, Minny, etc, and is threatening in places like NJ, the Dems are spread too thin to pull off a steal.

If Trump wins the popular vote by two he might win 340 electoral votes.

If it’s Trump +8 nationally NJ and NY might legitimately be in play and Trump would be looking at the biggest electoral victory since Reagan but it won’t be +8 nationally.
