Early voting: 47% Dem, 44% Rep, 9% Ind is voting 61%-35% Harris-Trump

Source: Daily Kos

Several polls out lately have asked people if they’ve already voted, and if they have, how they have voted. Here are the polls and the Harris-Trump percentages those early voters have said they voted.

ABC/Ipsos: Harris 62-33
CNN: Harris 61-36
NYT/Siena: Harris 58-40
HarrisX poll: Harris 61-32
USAToday/Suffolk: Harris 63-34
That’s 5 polls all showing roughly the same thing. There was also a Marist poll of 3 swing states showing Harris up 10-12 points in the early voting of each state, but I’ll just use national polls. Swing states will be closer than the national average (which is why they’re swing states), but there are also blue states where Harris will be ahead even more.

That’s an average of 61.2% for Harris, 35% for Trump.

What this means is that a partisan split of approx. 47% Dem, 44% Rep, 9% Ind is voting approx. 61%-35% Harris-Trump.

This is what i believe is happening with the higher republican voting. Based on all the polls in the article representing real data (not assumptions), the trend is where i would expect it to be.

Get the vote out!

Progressive news sources are getting purchased and turned into right wing propaganda. If not entirely, portions of them for sure. Right wing billionaires are willing to invest and throw away profits to control the news. We need Progressive money to fight back and keep news sources fair at the very least. All we have right now is MSNBC and even that is not 100% of the time.

This is a crisis that we should deal with asap.

46/46% tie between Biden & Trump is not about age. Democrats better wake up to the real cause.

Source: Daily Kos

The polls indicate a tie between Biden and Trump at 46%. Many Democrats attribute Biden’s perceived performance issues to his age. However, that is a misguided perspective. Biden’s age is not the primary concern.

Democratic advisors and consultants are disconnected from grassroots realities. They often stay in their “ivory towers” and fail to engage with various communities, particularly Republican strongholds, thereby missing out on understanding the true concerns and narratives being spread on the ground.

The “MAGA base” of the Republican party is highly active in engaging with people via the internet, alternative media, churches, and other institutions. They effectively communicate their narratives, even if not always truthful, thus successfully reaching out and influencing perceptions.

We are doing a good job overall, but this column provides excellent actionable feedback that would help destroy the traitorous Republican party.

It's an excellent piece.

Gerrymandering means repug wins in the house are illigitimate-when are we going to shout this out

why are the traitor republicans allowed to get away with this illegal voting practices and still whine about made up Democratic voting problems?

When are the ads going to run? When are we going to keep hammering them with this gross corruption of Democracy?

The next republican president will likely be the end of Democracy

the next republican house will be the end of fiscal responsibility
the next republican senate will be the end of an impartial justice system
any republican governors will destroy democracy in their state

We cannot afford republican, criminal, treacherous leadership until the current criminals who have taken over that party are flushed down the toilet or in a collective prison.

These are my opinions.

I heard Trump got 90 on an IQ test and bragged that he got an A

he also bragged that he was on the extreme right side of the standard deviation curve showing the IQ distribution scores proving his right wing credentials.

The political fight is no longer about Democratic versus Republican

the right is now between:

those who support Democracy versus those who would turn America into a Totalitarian State/Dictatorship.

In this contest, the Democratic Party is pro-Democracy and the Republicans are pro-dictatorship (destroy America). Republicans seem to work for foreign enemies and are supported by fox (traitor) news and the traitor murdochs, and other totalitarians like the koch's. Segments of right-wind religious fanatics also want to destroy America and Democracy.

Anyone voting republican needs to understand they are voting to destroy democracy and to support mass killers like putin. Anyone not voting for the Democratic Party should be honest and admit they hate America. This is no longer about taxes, free markets or capitalism. This is about Democracy versus totalitarianism.

2022 midterms may be the last democratic election we ever have in this country

If the repugs get the house and the senate, all their efforts will go to setting up a steal, destroying democracy, making the public angry. Foreign psycops with unlimited money will pour into right wing channels to spew lies. GOP victory in 2024 will mean an effective stealing operation and that will be it for Democracy in this country. Trump will change the 2 term rule and stay in power for life. The rest of the gop will gobble up the left overs as trump enriches his family much as the other dictators around the world do,.

The planners of the Jan 6 coup knew it had to be a permanent direction - frightening implications

There are so many people involved in the Jan 6 coup a the highest levels of repug government. They would know that if the coup succeeded, the only to stay out of jail after future elections we to ensure they could never lose power. This is what dictatorships are about. So i'm pretty sure the plan was for trump to never lose power again and for democracy to be dismantled or function like a third world dictatorship.

This is the mindset of the republican leadership. If they were willing to support a coup on Jan 6th, i don't believe they have any interest in protecting our Democracy. We show weakness at the risk of American values and Democracy.
