So maybe everyone DOESN’T know that Democratic generic poll leads are disappearing?
I was shocked (and excited) to see that 12 of the last 16 Generic Polls listed by 538 show Democrats leading Republicans in voter preference ratings. They even lead Republicans in 5 of 8 likely voter polls.
The Democratic leads are not insignificant either. 538 shows 1 Democratic lead of 5 points., 4 Dem leads of 4 points, 3 of 3 points and 4 of 2 points. One poll shows a dead even race, and the Republicans show leads in 3 polls--2 leads of 5 points and 1 lead of 4 points….and the four latest polls all show leads for the Democrats.
So how is it that the narrative is that Democrats are suffering this terrible crash in approval among voters? OR, could it just be that the media are, as they have done so many times, just rehashing everyone else’s story?
UPDATE: Per the suggestion from Kos compatriot wilbur, just checked out the early voting numbers from TargetSmart and Democrats are crushing it in early voting. (BTW, seems like com-patriots is a great names for the members of the Kos Community.)
Per TargetSmart, the actual percentage of Democratic votes is 7 POINTS HIGHER than 2018—(51.5 vs. 44.8%)...and total Democratic votes are up 1.6 MIllion, while Republican early votes are down almost 700 Thousand.)
Well worth letting your day be happier by spending some time at TargetSmart! And here’s a screen shot of the latest numbers of early voters!
Wow! So Republicans can pay for a narrative but voters can still vote and change their bullshit.
It’s also National Vote Early Day today. So Go Vote and Build the Wave!
