Those polls were done to force Biden to step aside. Had he been the intended nominee, you'd have never seen his polls lagging. |
Unfortunately I think you all are delusional. This is going to be a nailbiter in the worst possible way. The reality is the average American has less purchasing power than they did 4 years ago. many people blame Democrats for that. I don't agree with them, but for those people it is something they are reminded of on a daily basis. They will forget the debate. They have already forgotten January 6. Harris is the underdog and needs to keep the news cycle focused on how crazy, confused and hateful Trump is and how he and his friends will let women bleed out in parking lots. Instead we are all talking about immigration, which is unfortunately a losing issue for Democrats (again, don't agree, I am an immigrant myself and the anti immigrant rhetoric literally pains me). This is going to be a tough road for Harris. I really hope she wins but I think Trump has the advantage in this race. |

Why is Silver's newest PA poll still a poll ending September 6th?

They do one daily update at 4:30pm. They are a two-man show. |

IMO
AND ONLY IMO I THINK POLLING WILL BE OFF AFTER SUNDAY EVENT. TRUMP WILL GET ANOTHER BOUNCE LIKE HE DID LAST TIME HE GOT SHOT. |
He didn't get shot (this time) - there wasn't even a bullet fired by the alleged assassin. |
Well, if they cared about facts they'd know that Trump tariffs will give them even less than they do now. |
You are preaching to the choir my friend |

With the exception of 2016, PA has not voted for a for a Republican for President since George HW Bush in 1984.
2016 was the exception because Trump's campaign was able to pull the Ninja attack and they canvassed the rural votes strongly and pulled an overwhelming turnout in rural and Republican suburban communities. This was a gross error by Clinton's campaign who did not believe that PA was a battleground state, so her campaign ignored the Trump campaign efforts. Biden's campaign was wise to this and did not allow that to happen in 2020 and once again, PA turned blue. As long as Harris' campaign ensures that the cities and suburbs come out to vote, it won't happen again. Metropolitan Philadelphia has 50% of the population of the state. Metropolitan Pittsburgh 20%. Metropolitan Scranton, Allentown, Harrisburg, Eric and State College have another 10% of the state. These areas lean blue by at least 60%. The rural counties only have 20% of the population. Harris just needs to GOTV in the metro areas and not allow Trump to swing suburban voters to vote red and she'll win again. |

Unfortunately, national polls are irrelevant. |
