Opinions/analyses are my own.
The DNC will be a turning point.
If Harris continues to gain in the polls well after the event is over we will know for certain that this isn’t a honeymoon.
The internal polling must be clear, her campaign believes winning the election necessitates a very pro-Israel response.
We’ll see how this impacts her standing with young voters but it will likely reduce volunteer numbers among that cohort.
The only unbiased measure of a VP's rollout is favorability polls.
Walz: +4.5
Vance: -9.1
There are other factors to consider but the Walz rollout is far from a disaster.
I consider myself very politically engaged and am definitely in some embarrassingly high percentile for news consumption, but even I am not quite sure why so many Republicans on my timeline are so sure Walz has been the single worst rollout of a VP in history
"Withdrawing his name from consideration as nominee for president in 2024 was the right thing for Biden to do"
Agree: 81%
Disagree: 8%
Big Village / July 24, 2024 / n=1492
J.D. Vance is sitting at a -6 approval rating.
This is the lowest ever for a VP nominee post-convention.
Trump chose him to drive out the base in an election that he thought would be a landslide.
The game has changed, that may not be the case anymore.
@averagedemocrap
The implication is that 13 factors, some of which are subjective, can judge the difference between 49.97% and 50.01% in a swing state.
The truth is that no one can predict any election from such a basic set of facts, especially one this close.
I am genuinely astonished by how fast the electorate moved past January 6th and Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 election.
His approval rating dropped by double digits in the last days of his presidency.
This goes for both sides of the political spectrum:
Don't trust a pundit who "unskews" polls.
The pollster already unskewed it, that's called weighting. There is zero evidence that polls systematically disfavor specific parties or candidates.
@AnthonyCTesla
It’s leaked internal poll data, you should be skeptical.
If he loses Ohio it is over for him. States don’t flip independently. It would indicate an insurmountable blue wave.

this doesn't even include the context that steven never questioned the joke from the moment he thought of it to when he paid for the commission of the singer to the animator-
It is a little crazy that North Carolinians can vote 60 days before the election.
60 days ago Biden was bragging about his debate skills and Trump hadn’t been shot at.
@SocDoneLeft
I get the larger point that you're going for and I agree- but this data isn't very convincing.
20% is a pretty low rate considering these people have left their families and lives behind entirely never to see them again.

@umichvoter
I’m sure they’re calculating the pros and cons. Personally, I think the risk to the entire campaign is bigger than increasing her chances in Pennsylvania.

Harris is focused on reducing losses in the suburbs near Milwaukee while boosting urban turnout statewide.

Voters hate inflation, opposition parties are winning across the world because of it.
This should be an easy election for the Republican Party, but Trump is uniquely unelectable.
@AP
1. trusting Israeli reporting on a war that they are the aggressors of is disgusting the AP would never do this with the Russia-Ukraine war.
2. even if this info is accurate- 1/3rd? why don't you focus on the 2/3rds that were brutally murdered by the Israelis?
This is the Texas 2020 election in 3D.
A blue Texas depends on Harris flipping suburbs in DFW, Houston, and Austin. Something very unlikely to happen this cycle.

Yes, American liberals would want George W Bush to speak at the DNC. It would represent a massive repudiation of the Republican party by a former Republican president.

I’ll also share other election maps here as I prepare for November.
Some clarification:
The majority of young voters will vote for the Harris/Walz ticket. That is clear from polling.
What is also clear from polling is that her Israel stance will depress turnout among this group at least slightly.
@ScottHech
There are reports (as there are every winter) of unhoused individuals purposefully committing petty offenses and begging judges for 30 day sentences in order to avoid the cold. This country is beyond broken— it’s unfixable.

@umichvoter
Swing voters in 2020 saw Biden as harmless, somewhat humble, and a steward of the presidency.
He’s completely ruined that image for a lot of them with these last few public appearances..
@DanteAtkins
@umichvoter
I don’t think they’d announce his remarks in his schedule like this if they knew he was the VP pick. Makes it more likely to be a unity speech, still very possible he’s the guy though.
@cameron_kasky
this was mostly posturing too though-
he hasn't declared a national health emergency, is against stacking the court, won't sign an EO opening private clinics on federal lands.
instead he does this which isn't bad ofc- but is insultingly little
GWB speaking would represent a brutal repudiation of the Republicans. Their own former President aligning himself with an ideologically opposed group to beat Trump.
It would result in infighting but operatives might see that as acceptable if they can win independent votes.
Trump losing his favorability boost, the Harris momentum, the DNC, interest rates dropping, and the debates.
We could be on the edge of a large fall in the polls for Trump.

🟦Kamala Harris (D): 270

The 2016 and 2020 elections had polls favoring Democrats, but that does not mean 2024 will follow the same pattern.
See the map here:
This is pretty much the 2020 results.
If the polls are accurate for this cycle we will see a repeat of 2020. I find that much more likely than Trump winning every swing state.
Convention boosts are still real despite our polarization.
It appears Trump's lack of one was an exception, not the new rule. That's a bad sign for him.
I think we're all underrating the possibility that we end up with some really strange electoral map, historically we have for example, Trump winning MI in 2016 and Blue GA with Red NC and FL in 2020 both of which were very out of left field results not many were expecting.
Kamala's first interview will be a pre-tape with Tim Walz...
So not only are the questions planned... but Walz cover for her... AND they can edit when she screws up.
This isn't a real interview. It's propaganda.
@shaun_vids
attacking someone for something they can’t control, even if they’re evil scum, normalizes those attacks for everyone- you wouldn’t misgender Blair White, same idea.
There will be no future under Comrade Kamala Harris, because she will take us into a Nuclear World War III! She will never be respected by the Tyrants of the World!
Who is negotiating for us in the Middle East? Bombs are dropping all over the place! Sleepy Joe is sleeping on a Beach in California, viciously Exiled by the Democrats, and Comrade Kamala is doing a campaign bus tour with Tampon Tim, her really bad V.P. Pick. Let’s not have World
Even if you’re in a safe state, it’s probably not a good idea to vote for a third party if you’re unhappy with the nominee but really dislike the alternative.
I’m sure there were many Clinton voters in Michigan who voted for Stein thinking the state was safe.
