If New Batch of Polls are Correct, Trump Will Soar Past 300 Electoral Votes
2020-11-02
[Townhall] Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said that the Left is going to be "terribly shocked." The latest slate of polling from the liberal media fake press has Biden ahead by double-digits, though his campaign is acting anything like they’re ahead. Obama and Biden scrambled to Michigan this weekend. Why? If you’re ahead by 10+ points nationally, Biden doesn’t need to do this. Alas, even his campaign says the polls are inflated, which could also be a way to keep the Democratic base from becoming complacent. Either way, polling this cycle has been outright atrocious, with suburban GOP voters, college-educated voters, and Democrats being oversampled to the nth degree. Trump Democrats and rural voters have been ignored. Even Michael Moore knows the Trump vote is undercounted; he set off the alarm bells this week as well.

From Minnesota to New Hampshire, Biden is down. PollWatch, Larry Schweikart, and David Chapman have been some of the people who have been tracking the early vote totals and the overall state of polling, in general, this cycle, cutting through the liberal nonsense.

#21  Moving forward, I think we really need to separate the time frame that both elections and medicare plan sign ups happen it.
The level of robo-calls today has been insane.

#20  Central OH, Columbus area, Franklin County, which went 60-34 in favor of Hillary four years ago. Spent last four days driving around and across almost every part of the metro area.

Counted about 200 or so lawn signs.
Almost evenly split - ca 90 for Trump, 110 for Biden, in a metro area that should go heavily for the Democrat.

Trump is running about ten points better than he did in 2016. If Biden can't run up the score in the big metro areas of Ohio, he's fucked.

#19  rjswhwarz. I know but it I was trained in statistics and first thing they tech you is to eliminate factors that could affect the comparison. For instance Democrats could be more "timid" than Republicans despite the intimidation, I don't believe it for one second but better to eliminate this factor by comparing Democrat (Biden) to Democrat (Clinton)

#18  JFM comparing signs is pretty insightful because nothing will happen if you have a Biden sign in your yard but you will likely have your sign taken, your house egged or worse if you have a Trump sign. Knowing that and still putting up the sign shows something.

In my neighborhood there are few Presidential signs but lots of Republican Congressmen signs. I figure it's a sort of a way to support Trump without upsetting the reptiles.

#17  In 2016 a lot of people finally went to bed at midnight not knowing who the winner was until the next morning.

#15  The fix is in in PA. Dems are stealing it by mail in votes.

Unless Trump can flip enough small states to equal PA.

#14  Glenmore, the anti-Trump rallies are on the MSM every night under the heading of News Shows.

#13  Attendance at Biden rallies is irrelevant; nobody is FOR Biden. Seems like there should be some anti-Trump rallies associated with the Trump ones, since anti-Trump is Trump's opponent.

#12  Dems try and use COVID to effect election

Trump's started ZERO wars. That's a lot less death Than the peace price winner.

#10  It is wrong to compare attendance at Joe Biden's rallies with Trump's and compare number of Biden signs in front of houses with number of Trump signs because Democrats and Republicans have different habits but it is right to compare Joe Biden's attendance at rallies with Clinton's and umber o Biden signs with number of Clinton signs. If what I have been told is true Biden is faring far worse than Clnton did. Rallies and signs in front of houses are not votes but they are correlated with so logically Biden should fare noticeably worse thanlinton lost. The only thing I fear is electoral fraud

#9  I can't wait for the first network (or more likely CNN) to call FL for Biden around 6:30 - 6:45. They do it every time to try and depress the FL panhandle vote (Central Time zone). I'm sure there are other Election Night tricks they pull but that's the most notable one for me.

#8  They're already going to say COVID is part of Trump cheating (when it's part of their way to prevent his rallies).

#7  For Biden, Pennsylvania is lost. So is Ohio. So is Florida.

#6  (1) No Biden victory
(2) Results conclusive Tuesday night/Wednesday a.m.

The Left/Dems/Deep State have tried plenty to depose President Trump. Fixing the elections is their last [non-violent] chance.

#5  Outside of Pittsburgh this past weekend Trump spoke to a crowd of 60,000 - yes, not a typo, SIXTY THOUSAND people - while Biden sits at home and tells his campaigners not to meet people face to face. That estimate is from the Secret Service btw

Photos here including one from Reuters showing a human sea of Trump supporters

#4  Don't get cocky Kid.


Always wanted to say that.

I'm still praying for a 545 Electoral vote count.

#2  The huge processions in several places in California, NY and AZ do not fit the meme the polls were giving.
Hell even Hollywood although that one did end up in a fight with Antifa and a riot.

#1  We will see that the "If it's not close they can't cheat" narrative is not exactly correct...
