It’s possible they early voted or mail-in voted, but Haley’s numbers seem likely to be a statement vote.

The idea of going through the palaver of voting by mail, (getting all the forms signed and posted etc), to vote for a political primary, the result of which has been a formality for months, seems absurd to me.

But Republicans ... so ...

I just heard that on the radio news, and obviously the story SHOULD have been "Ambassador makes some fairly obvious and true comments about Trmp, who fires off some childish insult like a big baby". But OH NO, this is Murdoch country, so the story was framed as "doubts about the Aus Ambassador's competence because he doesn't have Trmp's support".

I think that's the one that just got a 30 day delay because prosecution added thousands of new documents to evidence, and should now be starting late April or early May.

He has so many court cases I may have mixed them up myself though.

I remember reading an Archie comic where the angry boys, calling Jughead a traitor over something, called him "Benedict Arnold" and "Mata Hari". I had no idea what those terms meant. I later found out they were infamous traitors. I found out even later that the reality was much more complicated, and Hari might not have been a traitor at all. And Arnold basically got hosed over a whole bunch before he decided to gently caress back, and he ended up regretting it when all was said and done (not that it excuses his treason, but there's a world of difference, assuming that assessment is correct, between Benedict Arnold and Vidkun Quisling, who SHOULD be the shorthand name for arch traitor who was a pure rear end in a top hat. I suppose some people could argue Judas as well, but considering the lore was that Jesus was meant to die for mankind's sins, wasn't he just doing what he was supposed to do to get that to happen?). That didn't matter: the soft surface penetration was that they were traitors and scum. Beam me up, Scotty. Play it again, Sam. Aquaman is a lame superhero who talks to fish. Lol some woman sued McDonalds for her coffee being too hot. And it's not recent stuff only; people debate how much Vlad Tepes actually did that was claimed he did, and how much of it was propaganda that got mixed into history and now, lacking a time machine, we can't confirm if he did impale thousands and once nailed two diplomats' hats to their heads when they wouldn't take their hats off in his presence.

No one calls him on it because if they were to point out on every random insults he throws around, that's all they would have time to cover. It's noise, nothing more.

You know it's bullshit, I know it's bullshit, anyone who's not a CHUD knows it's bullshit. The story is him being a fraud, and now a broke one. Why should anyone let him change the subject?

I might still be blearily waking up but I feel like the thing about polls is just that they might capture the opinion breakdown of a population, but they don't tell you a drat thing about potential turnout.

Like OK you found that Trump is ahead by 5 points in land-line cold-calls, but then he gets BTFOd on election day. Your polling approach might have various flaws and biases like it only targets olds who pick up the phone etc, or it might be biased in some other way, but the one thing it will never tell you is how many people will actually show up to vote. Because that's voluntary on their part, but polling is YOU seeking THEM out, in proportions that have nothing whatsoever to do with what energizes turnout on one side or the other on election day.

Am I stupid or can it be that simple?
