The top line is good but the Latino vote there is absolutely incredible.

First two things that jump out to me about this poll that makes it pretty useless.

1 - 400LV? Ridiculously small pool.
2 - 49/39 D/R ratio? Absurd. Even weighted, it is absurd.

Glad Texas is trending in the right direction, but I am not happy that Cruz and the state GOP are not actively trying to expand the base and keep Texas Red.

We cannot become Arizona or better description, Georgia.

Every road to 270 goes through Pennsylvania. And I just don't know there's enough rural left in PA to overcome the cities. Republicans need more urban support if they are going to win elections moving forward.

That's got to hurt Kamala. So what economic nonsense will she release today might change any of that?

Anyone else getting the feeling that this race is about to turn. A lot of times you see the turns in the crosstabs data bvefore you see it in the totals. I feel like we are about to see an overall shift towards Trump nationally and in the Swing States. It may have already started with the last few polls.

Several pollsters have been saying they're seeing signs of Kamala collapse. It's going to come down to turnout machines, but I think Trump is going to have a slight edge in total support.

I think people are motivated to vote for Trump AND vote against Kamala. All the left has is motivation to vote against him, not for Kamala. I think that shows up in turnout this year.

As much as I'd like to subscribe to the belief that there's a growing undercurrent silently backing Trump, I've ventured over to liberal-heavy online threads and have seen similar conversation threads with building confidence surrounding Harris' odds of winning. Some going so far as to say their polls they reference have a Reagan-esque blowout, like Harris sweeping every swing state and stealing Florida.
Most of my mind wants to subscribe that to fearmongering, but some of it is genuine concern that we're looking at and holding on to poor data metrics that are leading us down a path of disappointment
TLDR: I'm ready for the election to be over and for Trump to get back to righting the ship again

Right or wrong I think I am pretty objective looking at these things and I don't see how anyone on the left can be excited about anything beyond maybe the aggregate national poll. If they are it is just feel good stuff not backed by any data again beyond the national number. Almost everything else is trending away from them. Maybe, maybe if the election was tomorrow but it's not for another six weeks.

These trend lines were working for Trump in 2016, against him in 2020, and against the right during the 2022 midterms. I think anyone being objective knew what was happening both years.

There is not a single sign that Harris is running away with anything. It's close. Probably tied. If Harris wins it will be the closest election since 2000.

There is no way that 6% of the people that plan on voting in this race are undecided at this point.

They are just embarrassed about admitting who they plan to vote for.

Question is how much of that is Kamala and how much is Trump?

I'll rephrase a previous post.

Rasmussen seems to hold a good opinion as a poll that goes against the aggregate data like Nate Silver's does.
Which polls do you all see Democrats putting a lot of stock into, that also aren't aggregated?

if anything the share of undecideds is smaller at this point compared to recent cycles. people always focus on the net headline (i.e. trump +3) and not on the totals, but in 2016 and 2020 many polls had a "shy Trump voter effect" where as much as 10+% of the responders were "undecided" and the vast majority broke to trump in the booth.

my guess is there's not as much stigma to being a trump voter these days, hence the smaller undecided shares.
