The NYT polls is one of the most respected polls out there. If Trump is up by this much in these states watch out Michigan and PA. |
Yep. Trump was down by 10+ points in a lot of Wisconsin polls right before the 2016 and 2020 elections. I wouldn’t be happy if I was a Dem unless Harris was up by 15+ in most Wisconsin polls. The Teamsters not endorsing Harris is going to be a much bigger deal than people realize in PA, Wisconsin, and Michigan. Sean O’Brien basically said that Trump was clobbering Harris in NY among rank and file union voters so imagine how well he’s doing in more conservative rust belt states. |
Respected doesn't mean zero error. |
Even within the margin of error Trump is winning AZ and Georgia. |
How is North Carolina closer than Arizona? |
In this poll. I agree, Trump has the edge in these states and other polls show this as well. But a 10 point swing is unlikely. More likely is a smaller swing and the margin in AZ will be closer to the polling average (Trump up by 1-2 percentage points). |
Arizona has two dem senators and a dem governor. Polling is saying its a close game and I agree. I imagine in Arizona it will be very slim margins yet again and I wouldn't be shocked either way but if I was betting I would say D. They have simply voted D in many of these tight elections in recent years so the D turnout game is strong. |
The local chapters of the Teamsters in those swing states have endorsed Harris and will be providing volunteers to canvass and work the polling stations. |

Two different questions. "Death Spiral" is premature/hyperbole "Pulling away" is a state-by-state question. Harris is leading in WI, MI, PA, NV

Trump may win the election. But looking at his campaign versus Harris’ objectively, only one of them looks like it’s trying to win. Ignore who you want to win if you can and just look at what they are doing. Harris is trying to get her base riled up in swing states and trying to make a dent in Trump’s numbers in rural parts of swing states. She is getting a GOTV machine into gear. Trump has a laid back schedule, no real GOTV plan, and is looking to coast. There is a difference in hustle between the campaigns. |

Here is something you aren't considering in the New York Times/Siena polls.
Look at the sampling male and female. They're oversampling females and by large numbers. They're sampling 45% male and 55% female. Why would you do that except to skew a poll? And even with that, look at the results. It's not good for Harris. Beware guys. This isn't a good polling methodology. |
