I think the constant polling showing Biden being 6 points behind in every swing state is bad. This is an attempt to have Biden pull the breaks on all the genociding he's helping. He's prob not gonna listen bc he's loving Joe Biden.

It's bad, for sure, but one of the thoughts I saw in the thread is that there's a percentage of voters who are uncommitted at this time because they don't think it will be Trump-Biden again, expecting Trump will be disqualified in some way. I'm skeptical about that theory, but I think as the election gets closer and Trump gets more time on TV and scrutiny he'll lose some support. I also think the number of people voting for Haley saying they won't vote for Trump in the general if he's the nominee should be concerning to the Trump team considering he both won and lost multiple states by a combined 40k people in 2016 and 2020 respectively. People just not voting at the top of the ticket won't help him, and I think the traditional Democrat voter is just going to vote for Biden rather than leaving the presidential box blank even if they disagree with the guy on a number of issues simply to keep Trump from another presidency.

I appreciate your patience, this is a tricky maneuver
Favorability polls are not presidential election match-up polls. You can be unfavorable of Biden’s performance and also plan to vote Biden in the election, particularly if you are to Biden’s left on issues you disagree with him on.

I agree that ignoring polling because you don’t like the results is an exercise in disappointing yourself. But you also can’t ignore the actual electoral outcomes post 2020 and waive them off saying polling is hard in those races so polling doesn’t count in those races specifically.

I'd be way more concerned if it wasn't Trump running against Biden but someone else less crimey.

Here's why this is bad for Biden and good for Trump- NYT, tomorrow

I think the problem here is that you're comparing percentages of two different numbers, which is a classic way to conceal data. It was two different pools of voters.

Trump got 756K actual votes to Biden's 618K. Even if Biden absorbed every Uncommitted vote he'd still be losing by count.

The more accurate way to say this may not be a big deal is that (I presume) primaries for a nearly unopposed incumbent president don't really race people to the polls. I certainly don't give a poo poo about this Dem primary. On the R side people still have an inkling of motivation to trudge over and vote for Trump since it's still kind of a race until Haley finally cries uncle.

Yes. Raw numbers are less for Biden but there's far less motivation to go out and vote for him in the primary.

Re: polling. I'm really curious to see what things look like when campaign season really starts. And it hasn't started yet until I can turn on local news for the weather and see devastating ads by the Biden campaign that just feature Trump telling moron supporters to "Fight like hell!" over the most brutal J6 footage. The Biden campaign has ad ammo unlike any other campaign has had at their disposal, ever, and they damned well better make use of it. Trump is a loving scumbag of the highest order, but I kind of wonder just how many people who don't really follow politics don't quite get the gravity of the poo poo he's involved in. My wife's best friend visited from out of state recently. She's a fully committed Dem voter but even she didn't really know about the E. Jean Carrol rape stuff. I just wonder how much stuff that gets discussed in this thread has even permeated big chunks of the population who vote but have other poo poo going on and can't quite follow everything.

My perspective is that until it's truly election campaign season people are unaware or have forgotten a shitload. They are also stressed by inflation and don't want to know, so this lets right wing media dominate the perspectives even amongst Democrats.

The effort post in here is good but honestly there should be a running wiki of complete political fuckups per candidate for all elections but I don't think anyone has put that together.
