Polls - - a week out

[BCCHoosier]

no bc i still am moved by policies and what party will have a more deleterious impact on all of us. i also know that the systems in place won't allow trump to cheat and win. jan 6 i don't "excuse" but i do understand that i think it was somewhat impulsive and things got out of hand. the more damning evidence to me, without following this stuff to closely, was trump's phone call to "find him votes." i guess that was georgia with the dipshit prosecutor. but ultimately i wouldn't be surprised in the least if trump claims victory. i do believe our system will ensure the actual winner is in office

You are probably right about the system being in place, but I'm not quite as confident. It feels like there now cracks, but even more concerning, are people willing to look the other way if it were to happen. Many have gone full tribal with only the end result of winning mattering.

If that genie (system failure) ever gets out of the bottle, the implications are scary.

Harris shouldn’t be held responsible for what Biden said and Trump shouldn’t be responsible for what a comedian said. BUT the Dems held Trump responsible. What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.

Totally agree. Both are disgusting

Cry more

More wagging. Less barking

I DM’d you weeks ago when you started getting hostile with me over my thoughts on the election and you didn’t answer. It was an attempt at an olive branch. You remind of every bully I ever knew going back to middle school days. “I’m your best friend until you disagree with me” BS. You truly probably have a personality disorder. Sorry that there are no effective treatments for these

I think it is very plausible that independent voters or even long-time GOPers would vote for Harris because they are Never Trumpers. Supporting Harris and hating Trump are two different things, even if the end result is the same.

Meanwhile, you still haven’t answered the question. And it’s anonymous so why can’t you state your opinions? I’ve long expressed where i differ from each party. Too many people claim to be independents or even GOPers who won’t vote for Trump, but have yet to articulate any support for conservative views.

I'll answer your question and then I'm done with your "gotcha!" game, Balls.

I'm for free trade, the rule of law, a strong military, strength and support of our global alliances, American Exceptionalism, our democratic institutions and respect for those institutions. I'm against Putin's authoritarian dictatorship, strongmen regimes, Communism, people who argue without evidence that there is a fundamental problem with the US election system and people who promote an imperial presidency.

This is not an exhaustive list. I have a job and a life and other things to do.

Look at the registration numbers vs turnout %….its very very close. If Trump can steal one blue wall state, he wins

If your turnout % is mainly high proficiency voters who were going to vote anyway, that lessens the odds that the amateurish GOTV effort your running is going to be able to turn out the amount of lesser proficiency voters you're going to need to rely on to counteract the lead the Dems have built up during early voting.

Elon is an idiot, so no idea why you'd refer to his "knowledge" of elections? The total GOP vote in PA up to now is 458,055 so what does he mean when he says that the GOP is doing 435,000 better than 2020? Is he saying only around 23,000 Republicans returned mail ballots in 2020? The reality is that 623,404 mail votes at a rate of 79.4 % were returned by PA Republicans in 2020.

The discrepancy is that in 2020 Dems returned 1,702,484 and their total for this year is only 837,916, so turnout is not as high as 2020 overall. And the Dems don't have as large a lead as they had heading into 2020 election day...But that is only significant if you assume that the electorate on election day in 2024 will look the same as in 2020.

Dems are seeing a higher % of their low-proficiency voters vote early compared to the Pubs.Before 2020 it was the GOP that participated in mail and early voting at a higher rate than Dems. So if the opposite is true in 2024 it's really a return to form. The fact that Elon applies such a simplistic analysis to the early numbers in PA, and he is in charge of their GOTV effort shows why they are in such trouble.

Dems believe based on the data that a large % of GOP early voters have been regular voters, which means they're going to have to count on Bro crew type men to vote on a single day, election day. Also in 2022 the youth vote in PA was pro-Democrat, and a lot of those voters register as non-affiliated. The Dems need to turn out their coalition in PA on election day. If they do they'll win...

On the subject of "conservative views ", can conservatives and liberals share the same views ?

Can remember when pols from both parties shared many of the same views.

These days the pols go out of their way to make the other guys appear to be out of the mainstream.
