From the article:

“registered Democrats account for about 58 percent of votes cast by seniors, compared to 35 percent for Republicans.”

    My money says this race won’t be nearly as close as the polls suggest. Harris voters are far more motivated to keep Trump out than his supporters are to keep him in.

        A huge chunk of informed traditional conservative voters in red areas aren’t tipping their hand because of possible MAGA violence. Also, upper echelon Republicans want to defeat MAGA and regain control of their party but do not want to telegraph their votes.

        I’m 57. I can’t count the number of SMS messages from “pollsters” that I’ve ignored over the past few months. And if the huge number of unknown callers I haven’t bothered to answer is any indication, then I’ve ignored many dozens of pollsters that way as well.

          I’m in my 30s in a blue state. The only text I’ve received was from a MAGA fundraising campaign disguised as a poll.

        Thanks for making me feel young again for not answering the six unknown phone calls I get every day.

        I really need to move out of a swing state.

          I don’t answer any calls but I sometimes get polls via text message. I’ll sometimes fill out the latter.

        No one should.

      I’m pretty sure that’s wrong. Remember that to Trump voters Harris is a woke China-loving communist n****r who’ll destroy America. They’re straight up fanatics.
