    “I am surprised the price for Harris has not “shortened” more.”

    Alex Castellanos, one of the US ‘veteran’ pollsters believes that the polling co.s are missing one vital factor.
    Namely, a large upswing in Republican registration over last few years
    “31 states have voter registration by party, 30 of them in the past four years have seen movement towards Republican party”.

    I haven’t looked too much into it but I think I read that the Trump vote was underestimated in both 2016 and 2020. You’d like to think that the polling organisations have worked that out by now but they may not have.

    Similar to the ‘shy Tories’ phenomenon here, people know it’s wrong but they do it anyway 😉

    Harris is 1/3 to get most votes to Trump’s 3/1, but having most votes does not matter.
    Only a small number of states really count. It’s 5/7 Trump and 7/5 Harris to “win” the election.

    I do think some are too ashamed to say they’re voting for Trump.
    However, I just hope Harris can get the youth to vote in numbers they never have before.

    The Democrats have long enjoyed the popular vote advantage. Starting with Clinton in 1992, the only time they’ve lost the popular vote is 2004.

    What will be will be I suppose, I’m glad this ridiculous circus is coming to an end. We might finally know at some point this week.

    Very early but looks like Harris is going to go close to turning this around with Trump …. It’s going to get messy here

    Not surprised, being following the US election for a few months, and the way TRUMP speaks about women is disrespectful. From my understanding more women are voting. IOWA Kamala already have a lead, although Donald won’t except it.

    The best things in life are free.
    But you can give them to the birds and bees.

    Looks like going Trump’s way.
