Who is answering these polls though? I suspect it's a lot of old people who have alienated their kids, and have plenty of time to answer their land lines, desperate to chat with someone about anything.
I could be wrong, but when I get these calls and texts asking me who I'll vote for or did I know senator Jeff Merkley worships thr devil and wears pink underwear or whatever, I never answer, I delete em and I suspect most other people do too.
This election is gonna be a weird one. Whoever wins will get at least 310 electoral college votes IMHO, but with narrow leads in those battleground states. So things on the electoral map will look way more lopsided than they should.

I know, right? Totally unrecognizable and with no history we can go check.

It's funny that many actual leftists are saying they hate Harris because she leans right and if the dems lose, they have only themselves to blame.

Interesting, that's what a lot of poll-based maps and predictions are showing like RCP's electoral college no tossups map

I think they screwed up not having a primary. Now all the anti-democratic arguments against Trump regarding Jan 6th feel muted.
