      When someone uses bogus stats based on false polling then we HAVE to stop listening to that psy-op. Pouring money into false organizations to create a lie/fraud/con is easy. Actually winning an election fair and square state by state and based on persuading hearts and minds is real but takes time and effort.

      Steve Kornacki only relies on polls. When one side is flooding the averages with garbage polls, it's hard to get an accurate reading.

    Yes! Clean up government money and the Supreme Court. I wish this was talked about more. Thank you. Also, thanks to Simon, I postcarded, walked in our towns parade for ‘The Blue Wave’ float, got young men (my son’s friends) to vote for the first time, placed a sign in my yard, handed out Harris buttons while shopping and voted early. I’m here in the Georgia suburbs doing my best because I heard Simon’s message. Thank you! Harris for President! XO from GA

    Harris needs to forget about the "undecided" voters and just focus on getting her base to the polls.
    "Undecided" voters either don't care or they've already decided but won't tell you.

      Yes! As Simon said, voting early frees up resources to reach out to lower propensity voters.

      Agreed. We need to win big enough margins in the house and senate to be able to pass meaningful election reform.

    I voted for Marie, but I am disappointed that she is not endorsing Harris.

    • @WashingtonIndivisibleNetwork
      @WashingtonIndivisibleNetwork  วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      She is in a tough district. I don't necessarily agree with her tactics, but it's tough to find your footing in a district where one reason you got elected is because the other candidate is a circus clown.

    Most polls do not factor the consistent asymmetry (60% of women for Harris; only 55% of men for Trump) into their statistical models. If they weighted for this, the average would be approximately 51% Harris vs. 47% Trump.
    NOTE: Final 2020 results showed Biden had a slightly smaller gender gap asymmetry. Even if the 2020 gender gap data (57% of women for Biden; 53% of men for Trump) were applied, Harris would still have a ~3 point lead in the appropriately adjusted poll model.

    I am a straight blue ticket voter in WA. I am disagreeing about 3/4 of the ballots initiatives. The one I voted no on is the one about repealing capital gains tax, keep that one. The two “climate” initiatives will harm workers in WA state by making WA less business friendly. We must recruit and keep businesses, not repel them. WA. Lastly the long term care is absolute rip off for workers making < 200k. First the premium is way to expensive for what you get, and rich people can opt out by buying a private plan, pay a month, then cancel. How is this fair to workers. Please vote yes on the long term care repeal. You don’t get to keep the coverage if you move out of state. 30-40 bucks a month is a lot of eggs, bread, and milks for families.

      Hi Ale, yes! Folks are calling into swing states through multiple programs, including Indivisible, the Dems, and through Hopium. If folks are interested, it's really easy to get hooked up with calling.

    Doesn’t look like that’s happening this time :(

    • @WashingtonIndivisibleNetwork
      @WashingtonIndivisibleNetwork  วันที่ผ่านมา +4

      Hi Aimee -- I'm not exactly sure what you mean, but if you're feeling a sense of hopelessness, then that is exactly what the MAGA machine is trying to make you feel. If people feel like it doesn't matter, they're less likely to get out there and vote, and pitch in to make sure others vote as well. The solution is to get out there and do something, anything, to pitch in. You'll feel better and you'll help elect great candidates. Phonebanking, canvassing, texting. There are so many ways to make a difference! If you're a person who just can't talk with other people, you can help in other ways, like preparing packets or helping put up signs. There's ways for everyone to help.

    SIMON , man your optimism will screw us all democrats. look at Early voting in Georgia, YES it’s high , but all from Republicans area, Democrats counties turnout less than the state average. Please stop saying “ We rather be us then them “ ITS DELUSION. Unless democrats turn out in Gweineet , Clayton county with higher numbers in Georgia, we will lose Georgia.

    • @OliverMagoo

      The early vote is whiter, older, more rural AND more Democratic than in 2020.

      Yes republican leaning county numbers are up b/c democrats are coming out in higher numbers there lowering republican gains. This helps total democratic numbers in the end.

    • @WashingtonIndivisibleNetwork
      @WashingtonIndivisibleNetwork  วันที่ผ่านมา +7

      Hi -- this sense of pessimism you're feeling is exactly what the MAGA machine is trying to make people feel. If they make people feel hopeless, folks are less likely to vote. The antidote is to get out there and work hard for the next 2 weeks and finish strong.
