They're gonna need yet another war, or pandemic or something dramatic to change this. Juan Merchan ain't the guy to pull it off.Quote:
A quick check of the polling average shows that Biden has only led in one of the last eight polls, with the president posting just a single-point advantage according to Quinnipiac.

"You don't want to be that guy who is on the record saying we're doomed, or the campaign's bad or Biden's making mistakes. Nobody wants to be that guy," said a Democratic operative in close touch with the White House and granted anonymity to speak freely.
But Biden's stubbornly poor polling and the stakes of the election "are creating the freakout," he said.

By any metric, Virginia has not been competitive at the national level in more than a decade. When Trump won the presidency without the state in 2016, he became the first Republican to do so since William Howard Taft in 1908.
It is amid this backdrop that a new poll from Roanoke College shows the presidential election in the state tied. Biden and Trump both registered 42% support in the new poll, while the president opens up a slim 2-point advantage when third-party candidates such as Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Cornel West, and Jill Stein are included.
For a state that has hardly been competitive for Republicans in recent cycles, the poll results are nothing short of astounding. If Biden fails to carry Virginia in November, his path to 270 electoral votes and a second term in the White House is practically nonexistent, given his polling in other swing states.
The poll's result is all the more notable given the propensity of polling to severely underestimate support for Trump. In 2020, polling overestimated Biden's support in Virginia by a few points, but polling averages were pretty accurate in 2016.
you think Biden rises in the polls after the regime got a felony conviction on his political opponent?SwigAg11 said:

If Newsom becomes the candidate, it's because the Dems know they cannot win with Biden/Harris as the ticket.FTAG 2000 said:Gavin Newsom off stage left.nortex97 said:

The stunning felony conviction of former President Donald Trump garnered headlines around the world and created sharp political arguments across the U.S. But did it affect the presidential race? The answer is yes. It seems to have actually helped Trump, the June I&I/TIPP Poll shows.
The poll was taken from Wednesday, May 29, through Friday, May 31. The verdict against Trump in New York state court was rendered on Thursday, May 30. So a significant share of the 1,675 registered voters who took the national online I&I/TIPP Poll actually knew that Trump had been found guilty of 34 felony counts.
So did Trump's guilty verdict change minds, weakening his support? On the contrary, it seems.
In the head-to-head poll between President Joe Biden and Trump, it's now a statistical toss-up, 41% to 41%. But that's an improvement for Trump from May, when he trailed Biden by 2 percentage points in that month's I&I/TIPP poll (42% Biden to 40% Trump). The June poll has a margin of error of +/- 2.5 percentage points.

That's the kind of poll the Trump campaign is looking for. However, the polling did straddle the Thursday verdict, so there were some amount of answers given before the verdict. I think the more interesting polls will be in the next couple of weeks after some of the anger/glee has died down some.

My personal preference would be John James, but I know most would strongly disagree. The black male demographic is much more important writ large than the state of Virginia itself, and I'm not real sure many Virginians would vote on the basis of Youngkin as the VP.
I have no clue who Trump will pick, and expect to be disappointed in his judgment. My second pick would be a 'unity ticket' with someone like Joe Manchin, Gabbard, Cuellar, or even RFK Jr. just because it would implode so many heads.
I just don't think Scott will bring in black voters- he is not viewed as "authentic" like John James is or Byron Donalds isIrish 2.0 said:
Tim Scott should be the VP pick. He will carry out Trump's agenda and is very well respected in the DC circles.
