Harris maintains double-digit lead over Trump with youth voters in Harvard survey The poll was conducted between Oct. 3 and 14 and surveyed 2,001 Americans from ages 18 to 29. The margin of error among the total sample was +/- 2.64%. It rose to +/- 3.05% when looking specifically at registered voters, and +/- 3.61% on questions examining likely voters. The new poll also found a growing enthusiasm gap among young Harris and Trump voters: 71 percent of Harris voters said they plan to vote compared to only 59 percent of Trump voters. In swing states, 1 in 2 voters said they plan on voting for Harris, while Trump registered 41 percent in support. Additionally, 4 percent said they’d vote for a third party, and 6 percent were undecided. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4953351-harvard-poll-vice-president-harris/
There is something weird going on with this election. I keep hearing/seeing Trump is a shoe-in to win (based on Electoral College) in recent polls. However, there are others who see a reverse in the 2016 polling, where there are Shy Harris voters coming from the Republican side and the turnout in the swing states will be heavy with Motivated women. The replication of 2022 of the “red wave” that was blunted and reversed by the reaction to Roe v Wade being overturned. I guess we have to wait ans see. BTW, betting markets are dumb for Elections. They are NOT Vegas.
Agreed, I don't trust the polls at ALL, I am hearing more Right Wing Based Polls saying Harris is flaming out, I think that is just in case she wins they will point to the polls just like they did last time. TBH, I pretty much stopped looking at polls, I am not on social media like X or FB or any of that garbage and I am only watching news from NBC/CBS/ABC........................I do not want or need any other outside BS about this election, I will vote for Harris and hope for the best, at the end of the day that's all I can do. I do not trust a lot of voters to get the REAL news, they have too much fun spreading lies and getting the HARD-hitting news from some Russian bot, with Elon talking to Putin so much, I wonder if he gave him some tips on how to better articulate the maga agenda in those bots I kid, I kid..............
So much freedom with the current state of the GOP you won't even need to vote. Freedom Caucus leader endorses radical proposal for North Carolina to hand its electoral votes to Trump The chair of the conservative House Freedom Caucus says the North Carolina Legislature should consider allocating the state’s presidential electors to Donald Trump even before votes are counted in the swing state. Rep. Andy Harris (R-Md.) said Thursday that such a step by North Carolina’s Republican-controlled Legislature “makes a lot of sense” given the devastation wrought by Hurricane Helene in the western part of the state. Counties in that region are expected to vote heavily for Trump. Potential difficulties with voting in the hurricane-damaged area would be a basis for the state Legislature to declare in advance that Trump should win the state’s 16 electoral votes, Harris said at a Republican Party dinner in Maryland’s Talbot County. “You statistically can go and say, ‘Look, you got disenfranchised in 25 counties. You know what that vote probably would have been,’” Harris said during an exchange with a speaker at the dinner. “Which would be — if I were in the Legislature — enough to go, ‘Yeah, we have to convene the Legislature. We can’t disenfranchise the voters.’” Harris’ comments were in response to a keynote speech by Ivan Raiklin, a pro-Trump activist who has long embraced a radical strategy of state legislatures guaranteeing Trump’s reelection if they deem the 2024 election tainted by fraud and corruption. Raiklin posted a video of his full speech on X as well as a separate clip of his exchange with Harris. In his remarks, Raiklin argued that in addition to North Carolina, Republican-controlled legislatures in New Hampshire, Arizona, Nebraska, Georgia and Wisconsin could take similar steps by meeting on Election Day and awarding their electors to Trump. Harris asked Raiklin how he could justify his plan in other states that were unaffected by storm damage. “It looks like just a power play,” Harris said. “In North Carolina, it’s legitimate. There are a lot of people that aren’t going to get to vote and it may make the difference in that state.” North Carolina election officials have attempted to address challenges voters are facing in the state’s western counties. They’ve added new early voting sites and expanded the ability for displaced voters to obtain absentee ballots outside their home county. The Trump campaign has supported measures to ease voting in light of the hurricane. Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-N.C.) told reporters on Friday he hadn’t heard about any plans for the state Legislature to take the steps discussed by Raiklin and Harris. Asked about Harris’ comments, McHenry said, “It makes no sense whatsoever to prejudge the election outcome. And that is a misinformed view of what is happening on the ground in North Carolina, bless his heart.” The retiring congressman described a “massive amount of work” going into ensuring everyone in the storm-affected counties can vote. “I’m confident we’ll have a safe and fair election in North Carolina, and then everyone that wishes to vote will have the opportunity,” he said. House Democrats also quickly sounded the alarm over Harris’ comments. “Extreme Republican leaders are openly advocating that North Carolina’s electoral votes be given to Donald Trump without an election,” said Rep. Joe Morelle of New York, the top Democrat on the House Administration Committee, which oversees election policies. “For the first time in North Carolina’s history, voters could be denied their right to choose the president. This blood-chilling scheme, suggested by the chair of the so-called House Freedom Caucus, is anti-American.” Raiklin became a figure of interest to the House Jan. 6 select committee and special counsel Jack Smith for his December 2020 tweet dubbed “Operation Pence Card.” In the tweet, which Trump retweeted at the time, Raiklin laid out a strategy in which then-Vice President Mike Pence could ensure Trump reclaimed the White House. Raiklin has not been accused of wrongdoing and has become a regular at Republican events as well as hearings on Capitol Hill and the nearby federal courthouse.

The Dems sued to force Texas to let more illegals in. They also sued to get more ineligible people back on the voter rolls. Why would anyone do these two things? What is the motivation?
That's exactly why he bought Twitter. The platform was perfect for him to do that since it already had millions of users. His end game was power and control, not to make twitter better or more profitable. Trump started Truth Social to have a site to brag about himself, deceive folks, manipulate them, spread his lies and conspiracy theories, and peddle his trinkets, and beg for donations. It's a much smaller following than twitter though, of mainly MAGA folks. He needed to keep his followers brainwashed with as many lies as possible, deflect from all his crimes by constantly making himself out to be a poor innocent victim, and to brag about himself in ways other media networks won't.
When the GOP tells you who they are, believe them. https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow...mEdOx8AtBc6BjrbCxA_aem_A1BSN2bvl8U7jb4ES8OswA
The Freedom Caucus showing how Anti- American they are by just wanting to give Trump the win and not even letting the people make their choice.
