2. Voting patterns in the 2022 elections

American Trends Panel: Pew Research Center’s online probability survey panel, which consists of more than 12,000 adults who take two to three surveys each

Clearly, race and age are also key factors as I’m ashamed to say that a majority of White women still support the MAGA GOP. But one key to the data above is the women have been turning out at a lower proportionate rate in off-year elections than presidential years, so the electorate is still majority women but closer to their population percentages in off-years.
 
LOL. As if the jacket would read the study.

The jacket's article, which he almost surely did not read, 1) relies on IEM, which doesn't exist any more; and 2) is comparing IEM to "raw poll data", which is a bullshit comparison.

As I said before, the early days of prediction markets were pretty good when they were unknown. As they have gotten bigger, they have gotten worse. Crypto has also badly distorted our capital markets, by putting (in some cases) a lot of money in the hands of people whose only investment thesis is "line goes up." Crypto has made millionaires out of stupid people, who then use their crypto to bet on stupidity.

And also that Dobbs hadn't happened yet in 2020 or 2018. 2022 was supposed to be a red wave year so I wouldn't read too much into those numbers.

Such an idiotic headline on that graphic. Gee, I wonder why women and men voted more GOP in an election that the GOP won by a few seats instead of losing by like 40!!

I don't know why you should be ashamed. You can only control you. I mean, look at me -- a white Gen X dude, in Trump's best demo. I no longer live in a big city. I have a goatee, though not a super long one. Looking at me, without talking to me, it would be rational to assume I was probably MAGA. 75% chance at least. That doesn't embarrass me. I can't do anything about it.

Donald Trump takes the lead, as polls swing away from Kamala Harris​


Article is paywalled but you can see enough.

Eh. 538 has him at 52%. I wouldn't sweat it. These 8-10% movements don't mean anything. The race is going to be decided by turnout and polling error (technically polling error doesn't cause anything but I think you know what I mean).

It also matters what polls are being used and how. I read on 538 that if they filtered out the partisan or red wave polls, it wouldn't make much difference . . . except in PA, where it would be the difference between Harris +0.1% and Harris 0.9%. Since the race is largely PA at this point, it seems to me that it would make a considerable difference in terms of the current forecast. Whether it would make any difference at the end, who knows.

You've spent more time replying to requests asking for a single link than just actually providing one. Why even bother making a claim without showing your work?

I mean we get the laziness and lack of transparency, but still, put forth a little effort.

It’s Yellowjacket.

Constant contrarianism means one does not provide supporting links or atrticles.

Hopefully this rings true!

It's not true. Both candidates should be spending a lot of time in NC. It's the second most likely tipping point state. Remember: Trump probably wins if he wins either MI or WI, but not if he loses NC. So let's suppose he has a 60% of winning each of those states. He still needs to be in NC!! And Kamala needs to be all three places because she needs at least two of them.

That is, assuming she loses GA and AZ. But neither of those states is looking great right now. I still have hope in both places, but Biden barely won in those places and they are traditionally R states. You'd expect there to be vote fluctuations, and in a 2 point Trump state, a 1 point Biden victory can happen through turnout effects or issue specificity. The baseline, though, is a slight R lean.

It's like if you have Lebron and AD on your team and they are healthy, that's a great foundation but you can't get wiped out at the other three positions.
 
As time wears on, I just have a sinking feeling that this isn't going to break our way. With Fox News and X in Trump's corner (and all the mis/disinformation that comes with those platforms), plus a woman candidate... I just don't see how this is going to end well.
