Even fox fake news Saud Haris is leading by 3% nationwide and in virtually all the battleground states. All the moron Trump supporters on terb will be gone for weeks until fox comes up with more conspiracy theories
I think Harris might have to do better than a 3% margin nationwide to win. The individual state polls might slice it and dice it differently, but I think the prevailing thought is she might need more of a national margin.

Given the last two Presidential elections, I don't think the polls are telling us much.

As far as "even fox fake news" their poll doesn't show any special place for Trump. They had Biden up 8% just prior to the 2020 election.

Trump is within the reasonable bounds of rhetoric to point out how poorly Presidential polls performed when he was on the ballot. Case and point Wisconsin polls 2020.

Yes, holding polls to legal consequences for poor accuracy would be a very, very bad thing. It was very disturbing for him to say that.
He isn't saying they performed poorly.
He is saying they should be illegal

No, I mean when every fricking poll under the Sun had Hillary winning in 2016

Yes, she was expected to win and Trump was a surprise. Putin did a great job!!!

I think its all gonna come down to who the independents vote for.
If they go for Trump then he wins in a landslide.
If they go for Harris, then she will
I do agree with this but I will give more weight to which candidate/party gets their base fired up more and motivated to hit the polls. I believe at this point in the game all the independents have made up their minds as to which one or if they will vote at all.


*note* I will be showering after this because I hate the thought of agreeing on anything with you so I must wash away the eeeek.

One thing is for sure. The next four years will be good for CNN and MSNBC if Trump wins. If Harris wins, it will be good for Fox News.

Mitchy why has Trump changed his red maga hat to black? Is he feeling his demise coming soon and is in mourning or is it to match his new unhinged speeches a week before the vote?

Really? Um, no. I will head home after my shift, make some breakfast, catch some zzzzz's. Check out some pundits for fun later.

In fact here is how I plan to watch it that night.

I will open my browser to 4 tabs. CNN for actual speedy and clear results. Probably muted. And Breaking Points for general running commentary, probably on my phone.

As results come in if it's good news for Harris I will switch a bit to Fox to the meltdown. If it's good news for Trump I will switch to MSNBC for the meltdown.

A clear winner early I will play Diablo 4 when the coverage gets monotonous.

I will not get emotional about either way really. Why should I?

I'm surprised they haven't started asking those a month ago.

I think you will continue to see a slow decline after an early uptick for say a year. Internet pundits are slowly rising as they find an audience and young people just don't have cable.

Either way podcasts will get their due as a new major tool, with several having to grapple with a new responsibility to voters.

They would if they could. But you kinda need a winner to start to figure out the primaries. Kamala win she gets another kick at the can.

Trump win and the front runners on the GOP side change up.

We in Canada are reaching a countdown of whether the brutality of these tariffs will be imposed on us if The Democrats do not retain the Whitehouse.
This will be the fuel to kick start a tit for tat trade war. That is why it is important for Harris to win handily for the sake of the Canadians!!

"Ahead of Harris’ speech in Pennsylvania in the majority-Latino city of Allentown, a Puerto Rican pastor, the Rev. Luis Cortez Jr., took the stage after Matthew Tuerk, Allentown’s first Latino mayor.
Tuerk denounced the racist comments about Puerto Rico at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally, and Cortez spoke about bearing witness to Trump’s misdeeds, a list that included Trump’s immigrant family separation policies, his administration’s mishandling of Hurricane Maria and his open pondering of deploying the military against U.S. citizens."

Trump has not explicitly condemned the remarks and neither has he apologized. PA for Harris.

if Trump somehow got in and PP also got in things would be grave. PP would be on his knees quicker than Trump in his Putin 'meetings'
