  1. I mean it has Trump winning Wisconsin, Harris barely ahead in PA, tied in Nevada. Arizona being tied I guess is the most surprising?

    Not sure how this is much different than other polling which has been back and forth within the margins of error.

  2. Internal polling is just showing GOPers they need to cheat harder than they ever have before, in hopes of somehow “winning” the election in a way that Democrats won’t fight.

    My guess is that’s not going to happen, and Trump will goad his people into another Jan 6th, but this time against a fully armed and operational security force.

  3. It’s pretty shocking to see Trump struggling like this; it really makes you wonder if the GOP can hold onto their base in these crucial states.

  4. Fuck all these *Polls*! Downvote, do not click, on all this horse-race trash. A handfull of media moguls are gonna burn our civilization down if it means getting their quarterly bonus.

  5. Polls are all over the place now and will continue to go back and forth up until the day. DO NOT ride on these as an indication of how things are going to play out.

    Instead, **just VOTE**.

    Next hour: New poll shows its neck and neck as every voter becomes undecided! We don’t know how it happened but pollsters swear it’s a horse race and it’s not between one sane person and someone who’s batshit crazy!

    Assuming the variuos public and private polls use similar questions is a big assumption. Examples of poll questions which would likely give different results if the same groups were asked….

    “Whom do you prefer in the 2024 Election: President Trump or Vice President Harris?”

    “Indicate whom you plan to vote for among the following candidates: 
    a. Democratic Party nominee Kamala Harris
    b. Republican Party nominee Donald Trump.

  8. What shitty journalism. Unless you’re been under a rock for months, there’s no reason to be stunned by a poll like this–that isn’t much different than the myriad of other polls out there. This “memo” was probably leaked to Politico for the purpose of fundraising and voter turnout.

  9. But aren’t the betting odds saying he will win? Omg this election is too much. I pray Trump doesn’t win.

    I’m telling you, polls these days keep missing the mark because they can’t account for enthusiasm. That’s what went wrong in 2016, 2020, and 2022.  They are just getting very generic readings of the public mood but they have no idea who’s actually going to show up. I say mostly ignore the polls because they are all showing a close race but if you want to know who’s actually going to win, look at which side seems more enthusiastic. If it’s the Republicans, Trump is going to win, if it’s the Democrats, Harris is going to win. We keep worrying which way the polling error is going to go. It’s going to favor the side with higher enthusiasm. It’s as simple as that. 

     The signs are all out there, you need to look into them and you’ll get your answer

    If this is real, it is pretty significant. Private internal polling usually has a lot more resources behind it than the academic/media polling. Much higher quality.

    I’m getting whiplash with stories each day, even in the same day saying wildly different things for polls.

    “Stunned”?  Dude is nearly 80 and has been saying the same shit daily for a decade. 

    He’d be irrelevant if the news covered the actual news. Trump is worthless.

    Remember that the only polls that matter are the ones that have ballot boxes at them. Register and check your registration at vote.gov Vote on Roevember 5th

    If tRump is elected he will be declared incompetent, Amendment 25 will be invoked and JD will be prez. JD is deeply in bed with the Heritage Foundation and will implement Project 2025. VOTE!

    Pollsters aren’t stunned. Most of these polls are funded by Republicans who are spamming the poll aggregators with a lot of very biased polls showing Trump winning in swing states.

    The ones that aren’t funded by partisans are showing the opposite result, and I believe even THOSE polls are still overestimating Trump’s support.

    Ignore the polls and vote

    CNBC spent all morning discussing a “new poll” that was released showing the candidates tied after spending last week discussing Kamala’s narrow lead. Nothing has happened in the past week to change anyone’s opinion. They just polled different people and got a different result. This is all a waste of time. It’s very close. Anyone who is voting has already made their decision. Poll reporting is a joke. Get your non-voting acquaintances to vote and in a month lets all decide to let cable news die.

  17. Trump is paying for poling that shows the race being far more competitive than it is. This is going to drive Dem turnout, but he knows he’s going to lose the vote.

    He needs the numbers to be close so when he loses multiple battleground states can declare their counted votes invalid and push the results to the state house where Trump will win the state, and the electors. To be clear, the wild level of corruption that occurred in the 2020 election and the absolute lack of consequence for most of the higher ranking political figures in the movement meant that this was bound to happen a second time.

  18. Next Newsweek report. “Internal poll showing Donald Trump leading in all battleground states leaves democrats fuming.”

    I’m not believing this. In the 2016 election they said the same thing until the very end. I’m waiting until after the election

  20. Keep voting, keep the pressure on, keep calling out fascist shitbags for being fascist shitbags.

  21. I don’t understand why the polls are so close. I realize a lot of people in the U.S., especially the south, are racist… but it can’t be THAT MANY… can it???

    My god.

    Never forget: Before Hitler became a dictator, he was elected. Before Hitler became the Führer, he was elected to be the German Chancellor. And do you know what he campaigned on? Bigotry. Just like Trump is doing. He was railing against Jews the same way Trump is railing against immigrants, referring to them as animals, not people.

    It can happen again.

    It can happen here. In fact, it is happening here, and it’s up to each of us – all of us – to stop it.

    Please make sure you’re registered to vote. So long as we still have the right to vote, we need to use it. So long as we still have the right to vote, our right to vote is the only way we can stay free.
    Please vote. Make sure your friends and loved ones vote.

    The United States helped to save the world from Nazism in the 1940s. Who will save US from Nazism as it rises again, here?

    We have to.

    Pardon my bluntness, but it’s time to step the fuck up. And make sure everyone you know understands the stakes and understands they need to step the fuck up too.

    God damn, people.

    VOTE.

    So you hear this stuff, which how do you know it’s even true, but all the other major polls are neck and neck. Complacency is going to kill the Dems. Don’t fucking stop keep telling people to vote and vote early. We can’t have them win and ruin our democracy.

  23. They have NO intention of winning this election at the polls. He’s been psyching up his followers for a huge outbreak of violence. No one, certainly not Democrats, are prepared to meet this head on. Jan 6 was a rehearsal for the real thing.

    He’s going to do it. His base wants it. He wants it. Believe what they say.
