They are skewered towards the Democrats. MAGA voters don't say how they're voting, so the polls are off. Ask Hillary?

The polls are only there to manipulate the voter’s thoughts for when a desired outcome is achieved.

Polls- “Dems are ahead in most battleground states”. Then cheating and stealing the election happens and the media states, “see, we told you”.

That way you can’t accuse them of cheating because the “polls” said they were going to win.

Maybe but all my republican friends at work have no interest in voting this time. They are fed up with Republicans and politics in general. That's how I know we are in trouble. These are guys that always voted the last 12 years or so.

i notice there’s been a significant less amount of “voter intimidation” and “vote suppression” nonsense in the news and on social media.

That is assuming they are even legitimate polls at all, as with Wedgewood Polls

Screw polls. Polymarket is where it is at.

The gambling degenerates are never wrong.

You've done a lot of research into your "friends" at "work."

I did my own poll at work yesterday.

In a random conversation I dropped in a question to two young black men (26-28) about how they felt about the upcoming election. They asked "what election?" I told them we are electing a new House and some of the Senate.

They asked me why we are doing that.

You mean like the constant "The party holding the POTUS office always loses in the mid-terms" phrase. Yep, when the GOP is POTUS that phrase is constantly mentioned.

When a very liberal or marxist democrat is POTUS the phrase changes to "expectations run high for the democrats to add seats to House and Senate".

Oh, did I mention the liberal marxist or muslim democrats are in bed with the MSM?

That depends on if the polls show that it’s close. If the polls show a blow out it has a depressing effective and a solid lead can build. Fortunately that is not what the polls show. The Dems have made their biggest gains in deep red states, which puts formerly safe Republican seats in danger, but the Dems are pretty much even in the purple states. All of this should just mean a high turnout our elections where the republicans hold their safe seats and break even in the purple states and hold onto the majority in the senate and house even if it gets scary election night. That’s why the media keeps talking about the national polling for Republicans, which is very bad, because they want to give people the impression that the individual races aren’t close and depress Republican turnout. If I had to bet on this, I’d bet everything that we’ve got at least another two years of unified Republican control of the federal government.

If Talarico wins we all lose.. Hope you want to pay double in income taxes, because that is what would happen if DSA implements Medicare for all.
