[Excellent, wide-ranging article on challenges facing Harris, including Gaza.]
I feel like it’s not as close as the news wants us to think.
Wouldn’t, uh, put my money on that one
I wouldn’t either, because far too much is at stake, but anyone who takes our polling at face value is a fool.
I’m not worried about who’s going to win, I’m worried about the ratfuckery that is going to happen to try to swing the result.
What would you put your money on?
Butt-clenching. All my money on butt-clenching
Don’t think for a second that my b-hole couldn’t turn coal into diamond.
You’re implying that one candidate has a super secret big lead not reflected in polling.
Who? And why do you think that?
Yeah, I feel as if Kamala supporters are less likely to answer polls and that was accounted for improperly. Also, the news media profits off a close race.
Actually apparently it’s the other way. Conservatives are less likely to answer polls. Pollsters have been trying to account for it, but polling has become a very dynamic challenge.
Some one should tell that veteran that the GOP are trying to prevent military personnel stationed overseas from voting.
Edit: also that trump hates dogs. And dogs hate him. Like trump has never met a dog that didn’t try to bite him. (We can add bald eagles to that list too.)
