Same and same. Good luck at the poll tomorrow! I'm working a new precinct in a very red town. Fingers crossed 🤞 that it goes off without a hitch. 💙

My stomachs is in knots over this ever so important election I hope that people are paying attention and still have enough common sense to see what the GOP has become and are going to vote actual freedom and democracy over their wallets it’s imperative that every eligible voter who claims freedom is important votes for their lives tomorrow

Thanks for this information. Another consideration are all the various “Blue” groups that have been working on local levels. My protest group has been in front of Cornyn’s Houston Office every Tuesday since 1/2017. I don’t think we will turn Texas blue, but I do know we are not the only under the radar people organizing for so long.

In my minds eye I hold the image of a Georgia housewife, married to a conservative husband, saying to any pollster that asks her that she is going to vote Republican, but when she gets in the voting booth she pulls the handle for a Democrat, because she fears the loss of the right to terminate a pregnancy for herself and for her daughters.

Did you notice the large number of low quality RW polls out there flooding sites like 538? It seems like Republicans are trying to muddy the waters so they can contest the elections when they lose.

Yes, discourage the Dems and, if that fails, encourage the image that the election is tainted

What do you think of the early lawsuits, especially in Pennsylvania, where the Judge upheld "throwing out" several hundred ballots?

“But giving the GOP a platform to demonstrate their extremism and obstructionism, along with their inability to come up with actual solutions, may set us up better for the critical 2024 presidential election. “

Seriously. How many times must Republicans demonstrate what they are before the electorate gets it? Or do they get it....and they’re just ok with it?

Yours seems like a voice of reason, which the polls are not when the response rate is so low. Why do they even bother???
