| The polls in 2022 were pretty accurate. The polls in 2020 were awful. Democrats were overestimated across the board. |
What are you talking about? NBC reported earlier that Trump is polling 2 points ahead of Harris. I don't think DCUM allows us to post that but you are way off. |

Maybe, but right now, Harris is likely to be winning the vote of those who are not being covered by polling. As 2022 and 2023 have shown, since the collapse of RvW, under-30 and women non-voters registered in record numbers and voted in record numbers for Democrats. The 2022 red wave stalled to a red ebb. 2023, an off-year election had the 2nd best election turnout for an odd-year in those areas where any reproductive rights were on the ballot. At this point, in a presidential election with the man on the ballot who proudly crows that he overturned RvW, and record new voter registrations at record levels in the swing states, there are a whole bunch of statistically non-tabulated voters that are going to be coming out to vote to protect their health and reproductive rights. And, frankly, the Vance albatross will continue to drag the Trump ticket with those very groups. Trump's selection of Vance as a running mate has actually pushed more young and women voters to register to vote for the first time. And these are voters who were never included in polling before. Additionally, Harris has close to 4 times the money available to campaign and flood the airways and social media with her messaging which is only encouraging young turnout. Trump has also turned off many seniors and he currently has some of his lowest support from seniors in the 8 years he's been running for President. Also, black, Latino and Asian support has been waning for Trump. In fact, the only place he remains strong is the white male vote and he has not been gaining ground there. So, he has about the same level of support that he has always had. |
