I'm guessing this same author penned something about why the Dems are losing the election a week or so before the 2022 midterms as well.
I'm not sure how Harris can be "losing" when over 4 Million votes have already been cast and the Dems are leading by over 30% (60%-28%) of the 1.6 Million requested mail ballots in PA. This media blitz of people saying Trump is winning overall and esp in PA is just a continuance of the "Red Mirage" from 2020 and 2022.
Trump is again counting on the fact that early votes in PA are counted last, so he can again claim he's winning after election day when most of these banked early ballots won't yet be counted. He won't be able to schedule a 3am victory speech in the WH like last time, since he no longer has that pulpit. But the main motivation of why these MAGA types are flooding the zone and media with phony polls, is so that he can once again claim the election was stolen...
It's hilarious how people jump to the latest poll as if most recently released is also most accurate...
So the Economist/YouGov and Morning Consult which each poll weekly had Harris up by her largest nationwide margin of the cycle (+4 and +6 respec) in polls released less than a week ago. And then suddenly NBC relases one of their less frequent polls with a much lower sample size and much higher MOE that shows them dead even? And all of a sudden Trump is winning?
What earth shattering event occurred in the 4 or 5 days between MC's weekly poll and NBC's monthly poll that would serve to shift the polling so drastically? Newweek from Oct 8, just 6 days ago...
"The poll, conducted by Morning Consult between October 4 and 6, shows that
Harris leads Trump by 6 points, 51 percent to his 45 percent. The poll surveyed 11,353 likely U.S. voters, with a margin of error of +/-1 percentage point."
The latest findings suggest Harris is still gaining traction in the polls with a month to go until the election.
