Commissar SFLUFAN Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 In Wisconsin, a pair of GOP-sponsored constitutional amendments that would've weakened the power/authority of the governor's office appear to be going down to defeat, even in Republican-leaning counties. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 From the "Republicans for Harris" Zoom call: Quote Please look at what President Richard Nixon did 50 years ago and look at what President Biden did just less than a month ago, clearly under very different circumstances, but in the end they did the same thing: they put our country first! They put the United States first. They set aside their own personal political interests and did the right thing! 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Quote The Trump campaign booked the smaller of two venues at the same complex in downtown Asheville for Wednesday's rally. The Thomas Wolfe Auditorium has a capacity of just 2,431 people, while a larger arena next door that is not hosting Trump has a capacity of 7,200.

North Carolina wasn't even one of the cities in Reputator's post with the tweet breaking down Trump's debts in different cities for different rallies. I guess NC saw the same tweet we did. Is he just not going to campaign in the 13 cities where he currently owes money? Plus I believe that the tweet's data is based on numbers from 2019 given the data was compiled in 2019 by the Centers for Public Integrity . . . I imagine he's racked up more debt since then given he's done two more campaigns in 2020 and 2024. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like it's ingrained in him... he'd rather sue you than pay you. This goes all the way back to his time as a real estate developer in NY. It's pathological.

To me that is blowout territory and I refuse to believe it They're all still being distorted by non-response bias IMO. Trump voters are currently gloomy and no longer as interested in answering polls as they were before Biden dropped out, while Dems are excited and more likely to respond to a pollster to express their excitement. That dynamic changes the polls, but it doesn't change the vote count. I think it remains a dead heat, and that the election will be won on razor-thin margins like in 2020. I'd love to be wrong. Edit: Remember, Trump overperformed every polling average in 2020 save for RCP's numbers in PA: 2020 margins in final election polling averages: Wisconsin: 6.7 Biden (RCP), 8.4 Biden (538) Michigan: 4.2 Biden (RCP), 7.9 Biden (538) Pennsylvania: 1.2 Biden (RCP), 4.7 Biden (538) Actual 2020 Margins Wisconsin - 0.6% Biden - 20,682 votes of 3,241,050 total Michigan - 2.8% Biden - 154,188 votes of 5,453,892 total Pennsylvania - 1.2% Biden - 81,660 votes of 6,838,186 total Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last governor was a Democrat (Sisolak) and was pretty unpopular by the time he faced reelection in 2022. And the current GOP governor is fairly popular and hasn't done anything too offensive, and stays under the radar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
