The '50-50 Race' Pre-Election Polls Were Phony

[rwilem]

From a member of the Harris campaign's inner circle.

 “I think it surprised people, because there was these public polls that came out in late September, early October, showing us with leads that we never saw.”

 

The campaign's closely-guarded internal polls revealed they were in trouble. 'Conventional wisdom' (or if you were paying attention) would be those polls showing an even race, or even with Kamala ahead, were phony. They were rigged to make the election look close, and amplified by the MSM for all sorts of reasons.

It's a form of demoralization and voter suppression.  A constant barrage of fascist, dictator, felon, and whatever other language/smears they used in conjunction with the fake polls was all intended to make you feel that voting Trump would not matter.

In the end it was not enough ... democracy won the night of Nov 5.

Except, looking at the actual voting figures, they were not that far off!

 

Look, I make no secret of my dislike for Trump, and just about everything he stands for. I have little time for much of the agenda of the Democratic Party.

That doesn't matter, in as much as I am 1) not an American, and 2) under the American system he won.

 

But it was effectively a straight binary choice, and he got less than 50%of the vote. Under the US system he won, but it was hardly a crushing victory for democracy!

What's glaringly missing from this article is the fact that she was an absolutely useless, cackling idiot, inarticulate, non question answering candidate that focused on Trump, had the MSM pushing the progressive left rhetoric for her, only did softball interviews and surrounded herself with rss licking celebrities.

End of the day he got more votes than her and won all that was on offer. The Electoral College Vote, The Popular Vote, all the swing states, control of the Senate and control of the House. The people voted against Harris and the Democrats and voted for change. The people as the saying goes have spoken.

Largely because what the dems didn't realize is that even though Trump is disliked by a lot of people, the only people more universally despised were the dems. They are like that team you always hope gets obliterated because you hate their fans so much. The team itself you really don't fault, but the supporters are so arrogant, nasty, hate filled and nauseating you just can't wish any part of the organization success ever.

 

I think most the lefties living outside the USA are completely unaware of how many people loathe them.

Have they finished counting the votes in California. They could still be counting them this time next year.

The '50-50 Race' Pre-Election Polls Were Phony

Except....it was literally a 50-50 race. As of this moment, Trump has 49.8% and Harris 48.3%

PA: 50.4/ 48.6

MI: 49.7/ 48.3

WI: 49.6/ 48.8

 

So, how exactly were the polls phony? Looks to me like they were well within the margin of error. This is how statistics work. Numbers have never been the strong suit of MAGAs (nor words, nor facts, no common sense).

I think mot people are aware that the Republican party under Donald Trump is a party of hate, but thanks for reminding us daily while living up to your name.

You could also look back at 2020 and say the same thing;

WI 49.4/ 48.8

GA 49.5/ 49.2

AZ 49.4/ 49.0

PA 50.0/ 48.8

 

All razor thin wins for Biden. But wins nonetheless and they made Biden the winner.  Time to stop obsessing over the numbers and deal with reality.

Yeah, it was close...but that's not the argument being put forward here. The claim is that the polls were phony to suppress the vote. The polls were not phony, they were spot on. So how is that suppressing the vote? You guys get caught in saying BS and then change the topic.

I am glad my name is as annoying as I intended it be.

Yes, they hate illegal immigration, killing babies, trans nonsense, inflation, wars, taxes and traitors. Some thing need to be hated.
