Crap

Biden is not fit to be president and even democrats know it. He will be a joke

The whole convention was geared to point out that they’re electing an ideology- not a person. Hardly did they mention how great Biden is. It was all about ideology. So transparent.

Trump’s ship could be sunk I’m afraid though. Coronavirus and all these storms and fires in Cali, make for a tough set of non human related disasters. It’s just hard to Overcome all that.

We saw it in 2016. And pollsters will admit it today, they don't know how to accurately poll Trump's base. His margin of error is much larger than probably any candidate in history.

The gov't (USDA) compiles data on crop sizes in part by polling farmers to ask what they are expecting to yield. 75% of producers either lie or tell the USDA to pound sand. They gain nothing talking about how large their crop is.

I think Democrats by and large love to voice their support in polls. Trump's base, not so much. They voice their support at the voter box.

I think she and her mindset are the vocal minority, maybe not a tiny minority but a minority nonetheless. And I believe her inconceivable remarks and that mindset, and the arrogant open-airing of these types of inconceivable remarks, it's a certain arrogant mindset that places themselves even well above their own followers. They've chased quite a few people away, no doubt in my mind. We even see anecdotal evidence of that here on the board from time to time, more frequently so it seems to me. Posters mentioning friends or relatives who've had their fill.

Yuuge backfire coming down the pipe. They're lying to EVERYBODY, and once people realize just that once that they've been played for fools, it's an unforgivable insult. I can't wait until 11/3-4. They've simply shite the bed, Trump has rattled them to pieces and they are incapable of making reasoned decisions now. Yep, TDS.

538 Five Thirty Eight ...

Enough said ...How any one person can so wrong is mind boggling.

This is nothing more than a combined CNN, MSNBC, CNBC, CBS. ABC, conglomeration of stupidity in action.

Five Thirty Eight must be cash poor right now....Because they are far off the mark.

That’s why these polls are pointless. People aren’t walking around wearing MAGA stuff anymore. People who support the president do so privately. Not a lot of people feel like it’s socially acceptable to hold these sort of opinions so they keep them private. Just because people don’t openly admit that they will support Trump doesn’t mean they won’t vote for him come November.

If Trump wins MN, I don't see him losing WI. There are a lot of like minded people in those two states.

I could see Michigan flipping the other way simply because of Detroit

I live in Minnesota and I can you you the counties in and around Minneapolis will go to Biden. The population of progressives is just too much. I live in a suburb of Minneapolis where all I have seen are trump flags and whatnot and I still think my county is going to Biden. These people would/will just vote straight tickets which is sad.

Yep, that's about the size of it. Here in the Shenandoah Valley, it's just as Trumpian as on the other side of the Alleghenies in West Virginia, with the expectations of a couple of college towns. Too bad the northern Va DC 'burbs are heavy on the goobermint "workers" and nearly half the population of the state.

I’ve been polled one time: got the call around 5:30 sitting in rush hour traffic. Pollster asks me if I’m driving. I answer yes. He immediately ends the call due to safety. How can polls be accurate if they eliminate all callers that work 9 to 5s? That’s Trumps base.

Not looking good for Trump. Even with the D skew he is still trailing 3-4 points in most swing states.

Virginia is long gone. It may be a long time before a republican wins it again


Virginia was colonized by Yankees and hipsters and grifters that want to be near the seat of Federal power. I hate with a blazing passion these rich northern Democrats that bought up all the farmland in Northern Virginia and turned it into their personal estates. Their wives LARP as "farmers" by selling organic this-and-that at the local farmers market on weekends, but for the most part, they've turned working farms into big gardens for hosting parties. All to show off their new "rural life" to visiting friends. All their money comes from their law firm or consulting work. F#&% those people.

Why do you nuts keep putting red states as swing states to try and make it seem like your not favoring democrats? Utah is not a swing state. The rest of the polls are garbage.
