Talk about a bullshite headline. That is from FOX News website. So it would make you think that the numbers from the farmers are closely related on who they are going to vote for. Nope, the article has a quote from two different farmers with differing views. No poll numbers, no statistical numbers, nada. What a garbage article inre the headline.

I'm past the point of having enough of FOX. After this election I'm changing my homepage.

I can sure as Hades tell you it ain’t evenly split among Coastal Plains farmers. I know hundreds and I know of none voting for Biden.

I have driven a lot of Rural Texas and there is 0 Biden support and lots and lots of Trump flags at every ranch entrance.

Trump will get higher black support than Biden will get farmer support.

Fox hires "journalists" and "journalists" are 85% liberal. They are hard pressed to minimize their biases in their stories at Fox as well. These people believe they are the conduit of truth to the masses.

I talked to a huge grain/cotton farmer last week. He said that they had never seen it like this. That they couldn't keep up with the demand and Trump. They are going out and doubling their equipment to expand to help meet the demand.

Any farmer that votes for Biden is an idiot. The massive regulations he will impose would bankrupt most of them.

I had on CNBC last week and they had Jane Wells on the ground in Iowa and she said there has been no noticeable shift in support amongst the farmers - they love TRUMP!

You still have folks in Iowa who think Tom Harkin is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Senator Harkin was a New Deal relic 40 years ago.

What are we talking about here? I thought it was clearly understood that the media makes up shite? FOX is not a purveyor of truth.

If they wanted honesty in their reporting, they'd simply add " 2 " in front of the headline. To highlight opposing views.
But that's not what this is about. It's about elevating OBiden, and promoting a false narrative.

I agree, Trump has doled at massive amounts of farm welfare to those guys since starting the trade war with china. The only possible reason you could have a significant split is they question whether the welfare will keep flowing.
