Polls are crap

It’s a little bit notable how they change over time, but mostly it is just a bunch of poor methodology noise

But, I do feel it’s relevant to point out that even in polling land Biden has been gaining for the last few weeks and it’s notable which media outlets are pretending it is the opposite of that (like severely the opposite) and to wonder why that is

    I live in a mostly Republican district that will inevitably vote Trump, I am still voting against Trump no matter what, regardless of what any polling says. American democracy as we know it ends if Trump wins

      There’s a fair possibility that lots of “mostly republican” districts are relying on voter apathy to stay mostly republican. Good on ya for doing your part!

        Don’t forget the voter suppression efforts! Make sure you’re registered, because the fascists are going to challenge as many as possible.
