As I have learned a many years worth of political information over the last 8 years. A key reminder about polls "don't look at the National results"

[shockedcanadian]

Now I'm just a dumb Canadian as you all know. I was far less informed though in the past and you guys, among others; educated me.

So, I give a critical piece of information for you if you didn't know. When you hear Fox News, CNN or the crazies on MSNBC tell you "Trump is leading Harris by 2% in the polls" (the current poll results). That is very bad for Harris because this is the popular vote. As you guys told me early in my travels, you are an Electorate College system. They always quote the poll that makes their candidate look better, which is generally the National Poll.

Who cares if Harris gets 90% of the vote in a multi-million populated city in California or NY which skewed the overall results? It is all about the Swing States. Trump has also made key moves in some blue states making them essentially purple.

As it were, from all I have seen, she polls worse than Biden in the Rust Belt, swing states etc. If Trump is leading in a National Poll, that is horrible for the Dems as a GOP should rarely win such polls nowadays.

It is Not all about the swing states. While they are important, you again miss the forest for the tree.

We'll see how Trump deals with another Black Woman going up against him.

Black women are I believe 7% of the voting population. They are being given excessive coverage because they vote overwhelmingly for Democrats.

Trump will gain slightly with them and moreso with black men. He will also gain with Hispanic voters.

In the end this focus on race and gender is designed to take away from policy discussion. Some want the U.S electorate to be completely dumbed down and docile. If 10M illegals entered the U.S under Biden, how many would enter in four years under Harris, especially considering she was assigned to "fix the border".

That will be the key issue followed by the economy. Try as the MSM in the pocket of Dem donors, Americans see and feel this pain. Trump is going to be visiting the border multiple times in his campaign. That's what leaders do.

Vote for what kind of country you want.

It is funny as hell you bring this up now after months of your fellow MAGA cult members posting national poll after poll showing Trump beating Biden

I've never posted one single poll that I can remember. Can you refer to the poll I have posted please, so I can indulge you?

Just so you know, Director Wray has once again reminded Americans of the arrests they made of terrorists who crossed into the U.S. Get the hint America, he is smacking you in the face with facts, "protect your border!"

If you would like I could point you to a few good remedial reading apps so that you can learn how to read and then you will know that I never said you posted a poll.

 

[shockedcanadian]

I see. I stand corrected. I apologize profusely.

 

[M14 Shooter]

This has always been the case -- the states matter, not the national vote.

And a hard lesson for Hillary supporters.

Another trick they play, which you didn't mention, is this race is between six people, not two. So, any poll not including RFK, Cornell West, Jill Stein, and Chase Oliver, is not a real poll. Head to head poll matchups don't reflect the reality that six people are actually running.

Especially important in the swing states! Those other candidates on the ballot in any of those swing states can affect the results between the two major candidates!

Thinking the popular vote matters in the Presidential election is like thinking hits instead of runs wins baseball games.

Or yards offense over points on the board!

 

[Care4all]

Don't think the other states don't matter though....their popular votes, which lead to their State electoral votes, are all in the total electoral votes, to win.

Sure.
But the fact the (D) carriers CA by 4 million votes doesn't matter.

It's actually rather funny that Jill Stein is running again in 2024. She was determined to run against Hillary in 2016, which helped Trump win in the swing states. After Trump won, Stein got full of remorse that she may have contributed to Trump winning and challenged the election results in the swing states. Apparently she didn't learn her lesson from 2016 because she's running again and the very same thing might happen all over again.

Or she's doing in 2024, what she did in 2016, because she wants to be the spoiler again, contrary to her contrite words in 2016.

 

[JLW]

I think the OP is rather obvious. The fate of the nation rests in swing states like Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.

One that sent Brown women by the millions to certain rape and murder by inviting them to cross Cartel controlled areas of Northern Mexico?

Why do you suppose Harris hates Hispanics that much that she would do such a thing?

What she really wants to do is force the dem nominee's position on the planet closer to hers or she will be the spoiler, after which she will say I'm so sorry a million times over because it helped elect a person who is actually further away from her position than the dem would have been. Stupid is as stupid does.
