Listen to Nate Silver. The time to get excited, or nervous, about the cross-tabs in any individual poll, is never.

Concentrate on the big picture: Biden is not a viable candidate. If he stays in this election to the end, Trump will win, barring some near unbelievable act of poor judgment on his part .
and if we're being honest, even that may not be enough to push biden over the hump. trump is just about electorally immune to consequences for his poor judgment these days. the entirety of the political spectrum is inured to it after 9 years.
Thank God for that. Most of it was manufactured by the far left media.
Buy a man eat fish, he day, teach fish man, to a lifetime.

- Joe Biden

I think that, to be very honest with you, I do believe that we should have rightly believed, but we certainly believe that certain issues are just settled.

- Kamala Harris

I meant, like, credible new allegations of a violent felony type poor judgment.

Highly doubtful…she doesn't poll well with anyone historically…she's only getting a bump now because her boss is brain dead…

Ultimately, the Democrats should, imho, focus on saving the senate first, with a change at the top of the ticket. I think Silver agrees with this.
Silver has already said openly that the Dems should dump Biden on his Substack, and that he will vote third party if they don't. Not sure if that means RFK Jr., or what. Stein and West are both way left of where he has claimed to be, politically.

No sense in even considering polling as a viable data set any longer. They're never right.

And watch, as terrible as everyone seems to agree Kamala is, once the switch is made, polling is going to show a big bounce for her, everyone in the left is gonna get all excited again while everyone on the right will think the sky is falling. It doesn't mean anything.

Polling just simply does not matter anymore. And most importantly, it can't account for ballet harvesting and fraud which will 100% play a factor in the outcome of the next presidential election.

The value in polls are in the details. This is from Cyngal's July1-2nd poll. Link to Poll

  • Female voters <55 moved 9pp toward Republicans; females 55+ moved 6pp to the GOP (probably could bump the Trump isn't pro-life enough thread, since this is probably in part due to that neutral stance)
  • The congressional generic ballot moved from R+0 to R+4, the largest single month-over-month movement in the history of our national polling.
  • Married Men +23 points Trump over Biden
  • Unmarried women +17 points Biden over Trump but Married Women +9 points Trump over Biden

A certain set of people told us for months how Trump had no shot at getting the female vote. Well now we can see that those individuals should not be quitting their day jobs.


Honestly it is hard not to get excited. The democrats are in such a terrible position with no clear path to recovery or righting the ship that the outcome of Trump + Senate (with 1-2 cushion seat majority) + House looks like the most likely outcome.
I was one of those people. Honestly, no one could have predicted how badly Biden would've performed at the debate. We all knew he had dementia, but I didn't think he had declined so much since '20. Now that the media has turned on him a bunch of female voters are turning away from Biden.

and they will turn right back if the nominee is HARRIS!
LOL, women who don't look at Harris with disgust were already voting for the democrats.

OK.

Let's gamble on several elections.

I will bet on whomever the polls say will win, you get the other side. I'll even give you 2:1 odds, to be sporting.

Let's go.

His individual vote/opinion on what he wants to happen I don't care about (it's been obvious for many years he is a partisan Democrat/leftist at heart). I value somewhat his analysis of the polling data separate from his personal commentary, I guess I am trying to say.

The democrats have to do something to try to flip the table inarguably, imho:

It's a gambling market, basically, not a poll aggregate etc. But, it's what the market really is right now, imho.

would GLADLY take a GOP Senate with Trump in White House and a slight dem House majority.

compared to how things looked 5 months ago.

Yeah Remington released a slew of polls yesterday and I think Trump's dominance there will help take down Tester finally: all good news, really.

The only thing Biden has going for him is that the election is still 4 months away. that's plenty of time for the political winds to shift. think Aggies vs UCLA in 2017. no lead is safe.

You could've chosen a game the Ags won like A&M vs Northern Iowa

No, an Aggie loss is a better analogy. The good guys are ahead right now but that can easily change considering how much time is left on the clock.

If that's what you want to believe that's fine. My opinion is that Biden is crashing. But he will get many millions of votes.

In no universe would Biden be up 5 in Michigan and down 7 in Pennsylvania. And Trump only up 3 in NC?

As I've said many times, I don't put much faith in polls in general because I know how they can be so easily manipulated. It is why when I post a poll, I don't usually include a comment. I'll leave it to the people who love polls to get into the poll's weeds.

Agree. Those numbers are skewed. Assuming a two way race, I'm thinking Michigan is more like 50/50, Pennsylvania at 52/48 Trump, North Carolina 54/46 Trump. North Carolina shouldn't even be in play.
