Gotta be. Because I had the same set up in Denton proper.

This country has a lot more in common with Tehran, Iran than any of the industrialized countries of the west. It's just fucking weird.

Given the lack of oversight, I see the biggest poly market risk is just not getting paid, or they unilaterally decide the election has too many red flags to resolve it. Then you just get a refund.

Predict It at least has a history of paying off based on the official results. The payout may take longer than you want but you can always sell a winning ticket to someone ok with the low arbitrage profit.

I hope the polls end up being WAY off. To the point of destroying the industry. 

It'd be one of the few bright spots in this horrid media and political landscape if no one could trust polling anymore. Remove the careful curation of messaging and policy and just simply lay out your plans and ideals. May the best campaign win.

Trump still spouting the Aurora lies, and now he says they're taking over Times Square, too. Also says illegals are, get this, flying into the country in planes, and just landing and infiltrating society no probs.

Why does everyone discredit Silver and say he’s shifted right? Because he posts predictions you don’t like? He’s a pretty well-respected mathematician that’s nailed every election except 2016. He hasn’t posted any personal political opinions that I know of. I wouldn’t be so quick to right him off.

OK, this morning I woke up to the lovely Mrs. Canecutter bringing me coffee. I had just been dreaming something about being in Costa Rica feeding kibble to monkeys, so I told her about it.

She came back with a long detailed dream that she just had, where something big had happened, and she and I were crossing the country headed west to California, on scooters. Mine was a Ruckus covered in saddlebags.

We were financing the trip by selling off our silver to MAGA types with ashtray voices who were mocking us, saying "Y'all used to look down on us for buyin REAL money, now you wish you'd bought more yourself." We still had a handful of gold two-peso coins stashed away.

We were on scooters because by the time of the dream they no longer needed registration. We were on county highways because the US ones have cameras. We were going to California because it was affordable. All the jobs had gone. Except for one Chemistry job that she was going to take.

Unrelated, she thinks some of her East European ethnic Magyar crew might have been Gypsies who changed to something else in America.

And oh yeah, he told the crowd he was looking at the CNN cameras, and that he'd had their cameras turned off ... while I watched him say that on ... CNN.

Haven't we figured this out by now?

They're not undecided.  CNN tells them to lie.  Lest we forget the "undecided" voter from the September debate who admitted he was a Trump voter, CNN knew he was a Trump voter and they told him to show up "open minded" regardless.

Working hard to get the real news.

Hey, let's bring in a panel of random idiots or liars! We don't even have to go down on the street for our worthless man-on-the-street interviews!

But why do you do that? Maybe investigate the systemic problem we have with a largely disengaged electorate? Why waste the time on interviewing people you know nothing about whose opinions relate to nothing?

Because we do it every election year. Duh! I went to college and studied journalism! They taught me how it is done.

Look, the polls aren’t the problem.  Political scientists would like to believe that asking citizens about their preferences is healthy for democracy and for communicating preferences to elected officials.  
 

The problem is they are now being used to feed a media ecosystem that is far more interested in talking about a horse race than policy.  And in support of that you have media acknowledging the results of shit pollsters and treating them the same as non-partisan polls. 
 

It’s not entirely different from all the goddamn bowl games that end up hosting Nevada versus Vanderbilt and both have 6-5 records.

Fucking fuck. Who the fuck sees this and thinks, "That's something I want to be a part of"? And then somehow have the gall to consider themselves "independent thinkers."

The crazy part is we are in a world where they are questioning the intelligence of someone who not only was successful at everything she ever did, but found herself in leadership position after leadership position. There is no doubt in my mind that Harris was shift leader at McDonalds. 

I don't allow myself to wallow in thoughts about racism all that much. Sure I talk about it on here but I don't let it last long mentally. However, every once and awhile something will give me pause and make me really take it all in. When I was young, to get me to understand that I had to excel, my mom used to tell me that black people have to prove they are worthy while white folks have to prove they are not. Moments like these put it in perspective.

Bravo to your mom. That's excellent. I'll use that line.

I am too tired to come up with a whitty response on why we live in a country with the most regarded percent of people.  Maybe @Brisketexan can muster the strength. 

I voted blue top down. I hate people.

Watching NBC national run a story that Trump is up 2% nationally and people attacking/burning polling places.

jesus christo, we deserve it all.

Wow. Fuuuuuuuuck Brian Lanza. He's not a man. Human garbage.

ICYMI: Re: Stacey Williams and others who've come forward with their sexual assault stories, he called them liars, said it's a fake story created by the Harris campaign and that more fake stories are on the way.  Alencia Johnson tore him a new asshole, as she should have.

I’m presuming that’s from the WaPo survey and article, the author of which was on the Bulwark podcast yesterday.  Tim Miller asked the obvious question-“If her policies are so popular why isn’t Kamala doing better?”

He started to answer his own question, echoed by the reporter, that Trump supportive voters aren’t ranking policy alignment very highly.  They are MAGA cultists and/or pissed about inflation.

If anyone else is interested, here's the original survey with the various policy questions and responses, along with demographic and party breakouts.

It is looooong.
