A new poll in New Hampshire shows Vice President Kamala Harris is six points ahead of former President Donald Trump in the battleground state.

The survey of more than 2,000 registered New Hampshire voters by Saint Anselm College took place on July 24-25, after Harris secured enough delegate support to become the likely Democratic presidential nominee.

Harris leads Trump 50% to 44% in the poll. A poll taken by Saint Anselm in June after President Biden struggled in the debate showed Trump edging out Biden in New Hampshire by two points.

Great. Glad to hear it. But don’t get complacent. Remind yourself that polls can change fast, and polling itself is a troubled science right now because of the difficulties involved in getting a statistically significant and unbiased sample with the advent of universal cellphones.

I came in here for exactly this.

DON’T GET COMPLACENT

Here is how to volunteer for text banking, apparently. I plan to get off Lemmy and do some later today.

The fuckin world could still end in January. Don’t get all complacent.

Yep, and you don’t have to limit yourself to just text banking too. There’s post card writing, canvassing, phone banks, vote registration drives, etc.

Here’s another site people can use to find a bunch of local volunteer opportunities around them

Another thing we need to work on is making sure people are still registered. Some select groups of people are being removed from registration lists.
