It isn't that she is oversampling democrats, it is that all of the other polls are oversampling Trump voters to compensate for the "hidden Trump voter" but that neglects the impact of Dobbs on the electorate.


So you believe everyone else is oversampling Trump voters, based on what?

There is absolutely no chance there was a 20 point swing in Iowa between June and today. That is not possible. She has an approach, which is going to create some serious outlier results from time to time. This is one of them.


A catastrophic new landscape for the women of Iowa could absolutely produce a significant swing. Rolling back a fundamental right for all women after they have held it for 50 years has never happened, Ever.

IF Iowa decided that every man was going to donate a kidney on their 21st birthday if the state needed it you would see a similar swing. Iowa needs to mind their own damn business when it comes to folks decisions about their own bodies,


A very good analogy

DP - it’s not oversampling so much as it is weighting the groups differently. There have been multiple articles about this recently, given how bizarrely close almost all of the polls are.

Dobbs was overturned in June 2022. In November 2022, Iowa voted even more to the right than 2020. The R governor won by almost 20 points after winning by less than 3 in 2018, and the state house flipped several seats from D to R! There's no other evidence Dobbs is a driving force there. The more simple explanation is the poll is an outlier.

LOL. Republicans have done a thousand stupid things since 2022. Iowa women voters are not insane. The Iowa Presidential vote will be close. Democrats will take at least one Iowa House seat and maybe two.

If you think it’s such an outlier, why are you expending so much energy trying to convince others it’s not valid? Seems like you’re worried that it’s accurate.

They’re expending energy because if Harris wins, this poll is extremely inconvenient to the narrative that the polls are proof of cheating.

I don’t know what will happen in Iowa tomorrow, but people are being obtuse not to recognize that a six-week abortion ban, enacted just months ago, would be extremely galvanizing to women voters.

I'm not worried at all! The poll was laughable. It's just there's so many people here delusional she is going to win the whole thing based on this one poll... Maybe you're right; I should let you all figure it out tomorrow night that you were duped.

Confirmation bias is more palatable for most.

I jjust hope everyone had a good time dreaming about Kamala winning Iowa. I mean, what’s the point of following politics if you never can enjoy a glimmer of hope?


Conducted over one day

Used “random digit engagement”

Used more registered voters than likely voters.

Yeah— super legit.

You are delusional. This isn’t 2016 or 2020 or 2022. The non-MAGA Republicans are leaving the circus. It isn’t just Trump. The Republican House has been a dysfunctional joke. It isn’t just Iowa. Look at the recent polls in Kansas and Nebraska. Trump has lost ground in red states that are not full of racists and fascists.
