Yay polls!
Polls are so great. So much fun.
Woo, she’d barely win the popular vote and lose the electoral college!
Why don’t we get a real fucking candidate.
because the DNC doesn’t want a real candidate. They still don’t even think Trump’s a threat.
Both sides had 4 years to prepare. The GOP, as much as I loathe them, used those years well to develop a plan to destroy our democracy. The Democrats decided early on that they had 2024 in the bag, and have done nothing in the intervening years. They could have picked basically any Democrat and built up their candidacy for the last four years, they could have had a real primary with debates, but instead we’ve all been told to shut the fuck up and vote blue no matter who.
That’s the problem, isn’t it? Show me your idea of a real candidate and I’ll find you a bunch of Dems who would rather have Harris or stick with Biden.
There are a number of them being floated right now. If Biden had dropped out a year ago, they would’ve had a traditional competition in the primary. Then we would’ve all gotten complacent and assumed we had it made, and we’d end up in 2016 again.
But to directly answer your question, the names I see being floated the most are CA gov Newsom, MI gov Whitmer, KY gov Beshear, and PA gov Shapiro. And yes, switching to any of them would be difficult and risky.
…to which Mr. Trump replied.
“Fetch me two more Big Macs, young man.”
National polls for presidential candidates are not only irrelevant, but actively harmful.
While the online poll showed Harris leading Trump in a popular vote, the popular vote does not decide presidential elections
The poll does not appear to have anything to say about swing states…
