Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Selzer is a highly respected pollster with a history of accuracy, so this is a positive sign. A couple of days ago a poll conducted by a university in Kansas showed Harris down by only 5 in KS, whereas in the last 2 elections, trump carried the state by 14 and 21 points, so that's a big improvement there. She also has a higher than expected lead in the polls of Nebraska 2. So all these polls of midwest red states taken together probably mean something about how this region of the country is moving.

So Vote. Vote. Vote!

She's going to win comfortably. ~20 electoral votes.

Have to admit it. I was wrong. The U.S. is in serious trouble.

I hope so! If Selzer is as accurate as she's been in the past, this election could break for Harris in a landslide, the likes we haven't seen since 1988. Regardless, VOTE! Take the good news, put it away, and keep fighting like hell. WE ARE NOT GOING BACK!

That's why I'm already getting mass texts from fascist bots babbling about "uncounted votes in Pennsylvania"

Like the election is over already, what are these clowns talking about?

Just think how hard a time they'll have with their treasonous election fraud conspiracies when she does so well even in red states, even without winning them. That's why it's so important to vote for her even if you live in a red state where you think it doesn't matter. It matters!!!
