Nothing wrong with feeling good about good poll results. It's gives us energy to keep fighting.

results keep us from voting or volunteering or whatever. So I don't understand the nay saying. Now if it's a bad poll, and someone has evidence for that, I don't mind hearing the evidence.

12. Polls matter. Kamala wouldn't be at the top of the ticket were it not for poll results being skillfully weighed. nt

4. Pulling away? Did we forget Hillary lost when she was 70:30 on 538 back in 2016?

I am not saying I am not happy that Harris is leading or that I think she will lose. However, it's not pulling away until she gets to like 90+.

8. I am more and more afraid for the safety of Harris or Walz by the day...

...and their leading the polls just adds to that fear.
Those people grow more desperate and extreme by the day, and their desperation, coupled with their racism, sexism, and love of violence scares me to death.
I don't Believe...or pray.... but if I did, I'd be on my knees until about 1 December.

10. I have the same fears. I believe they would stop at nothing. I include the crazy Trump fanboys, the candidates and Putin

11. OK, let's set a new goal.

Win 25 states, win by 70% of the popular vote.

A lofty goal - win Texas.

A possibility - win in Georgia?
