Vice President Harris boasts a 13-point lead over former President Trump among women voters in a new poll, a notable edge with a major voting bloc that could be critical for her ticket in November. An Economist/YouGov poll taken this week found 51 percent of women who are registered voters said they support Harris, while 38 percent backed her Republican rival.

An Economist/YouGov poll taken this week found 51 percent of women who are registered voters said they support Harris, while 38 percent backed her Republican rival. On the other hand, Trump, who has struggled with women voters, saw a 7-point lead among men.

I hope social services are ready for the rash of domestic violence to follow the election if Harris wins.

Doesn't matter.

EVERY freedom-loving person, EVERY person who wants to see Democracy last beyond next January, and EVERY person who wants to stick a finger in the eye of the domestic Fascists must vote for the VP this November. The count in Kamala's favor must be overwhelming in every swing state, so that local election officials will look only like obstructionist crooks if they oppose the election results.

Women are smart, more reliable voters. Why would they support a rapist who is proud to be responsible for stripping away their right to bodily autonomy and self determination? They'll support the candidate who prosecuted and locked up rapists, not the one who bragged about being a rapist.

It's closer to 13 for all voters. Most polls cannot even get their margin of error close to accurate anymore. They give Trump +5% to "keep it close for the horserace".

Democrats have been outperforming the polls by 5-10% since 2018, while Trump/Maga has been underperforming by 5-10%, so my 5% estimation may be a tad low as well.

It's going to be a blue tsunami folks!

Dont trust any polling.

A Monson...looking that way.
But I never count my eggs until they hatch.

Polling always tends (to skew overall) towards the
conservative side (corps own most of the polls, e.g. Rasmussen).
Which is good, because then they tend to overestimate their hand.

However, I would caution. It still comes down to the Electoral College,
and there has been much whispering that the GOP have put patsies in several
battleground states. GA comes quickly to mind where Gov Kemp has cast out
like 10k voters (likely all democrats) off of the voter rolls. This has been
widely reported.

So, as they say, 'it ain't over until it's over'!

BUT, that being said, I'd rather be Harris right now than tRUMP...
