31. The 10 point swing is because
If I net 5 points, I actually changed the score by 10. You take away 5 points and give 5 points. That equals a 10 point swing even though the disapproval/approval number changed by just 5 numbers. You guys are the ones that need math lessons. Haha. It's like if you win 25 electoral votes, you actually swing the electoral college by 50 by taking them off the board. etc. Pay more attention young whipper snappers!!!
