      Except these people didn’t decide the election, because almost nobody who voted where it matters did this and if every one of them had shown up the outcome would have been the same. Across the six states that flipped from 2020 to 2024, Harris lost less than 80,000 votes combined. She was less than a percent off Biden’s record setting performance. Trump gained more than 800,000 votes in the same places. The block that decided the election was not Democrats ‘staying home,’ it was independant and irregular voters showing up—for Trump.

        She got 7 million fewer votes than Biden.

        Now I’m not saying the economy wasn’t important, I’m just countering the claim that “it wasn’t even close” - it clearly was.

      Online sample of 604 voters fielded from December 20 to January 07, 2025.

      Lol

      So they polled people who were chilling on the internet over the holidays, like 6 weeks after the election

      Pardon me if I find Pew more trustworthy

      Wild. When you dig into those poll results it is sadly clear that Kamala only would’ve won by pivoting right.
