Looking at some Americans, it's a case that they felt the economy was better under trump and the immigration situation, they like some of the proposals and the team he is proposing for government and they aren't Kamala fans thinks she stands for nothing and object that she got the nomination without going through the proper process. Obviously doesn't help when some on the Democrat side denigrate people who have voted Trump in the past. It's not entirely about people not making their mind up about a candidate though, it's motivating people to actually vote. If voting were mandatory like Australia you'd imagine Harris would win handily. A unifying candidate is sorely needed in America if that is even possible. Obama was always embarrassingly superior to both of these candidates for example. Edited November 2 by hypochondriac 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't necessarily disagree but this was known prior to the start of this election campaign and is a charge you could level at a lot of voters in national elections. A big positive for Trump is that he is entertaining, can talk to a working class person and is seen as more 'authentic' than a proper politician despite some of the shocking things he says. I accept this is hard to counter but since Obama the Democrats have never been able to crack trying to talk without soundbites, without sounding robotic or scripted and in America presentation matters. Democrats could have forced Biden out a lot earlier. They will only have themselves to blame if they lose. The fact it's this close is already a shocking indictment of how they run their party to be honest even if they win.

Tamesaint Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 I am prepared to be shot down in flames but I think that Harris is going to win this and it won't be as close as the polls suggest. Why? 1. She has the money and resources to afford a much better organisation. She will get the vote out better than an out sourced PAC does for Trump. 2. Early voting returns in the 3 rust belt states favour her and internally each party knows that. If Trump was as confident as he claims he would not have tried to get some of the early Pennsylvania votes disqualified. 3. Trump appeals to people who do not necessarily vote. Harris is hitting home with women who do tend to vote. 4. The mid term elections in 2022 were meant to be a Democrat bloodbath. They were not with the thinking being that voters were tired of the Trump bombast and abortion rights energised women to vitr Democrat . Trump is certainly not any less bombastic this time and abortion is still an issue. I accept that I may be completely wrong and there could be a Trump victory - perhaps even a landslide. I just think it is very unlikely. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it's a poll and I've not been paying them much attention for a few weeks, but it's a pollster that's been historically accurate amongst the sea of shit that polls have been in recent years. Not expecting Iowa to necessarily flip but it might be an indication that those battleground states aren't as close as they appear. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree that betting odds are often a good way to judge how a vote is going. There is a view however that this time some of the Trump supporting billionaires are trying to distort the odds. A bet of 24 million dollars was placed on Trump for example. The aim is to encourage the view that Trump is going to win this easily. Several polls lately which have found Trump to be leading have come from Republican backing organisations. If everyone starts to think he is bound to win and he doesn't win it means that Harris must have cheated and a whole new ballgame starts. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think it is very unlikely. Nothing to be shot down about. All perfectly valid points. I've also been thinking that it's not going to be quite as close as suggested. I was just wondering if I was thinking that, because the majority of news sources I'm listening to, are pro Harris. Trump needed to get over the line on a wave of populism, partly lifting up unregistered, disaffected voters. But that wave hasn't quite been large enough to get him there. Harris has been stronger on areas that drew early criticism and that focus is coming across. Her biggest issue this week was Biden. Meanwhile Trump spends his time criticising a mic stand. It's probably too much to hope that if she does win, that the Democrats look at areas where they lost support, and consider making some changes there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmes_and_Watson Posted November 4 Share Posted November 4 Couldn't find a link, but from Sky. Professor who correctly predicted nine of last 10 elections says he's 'sure' of who will win tomorrow A historian who has successfully predicted nine out of the last 10 elections in the US believes Kamala Harris will win the keys to the White House. Polls have been suggesting it will be a neck-and-neck race between Republican nominee Donald Trump and his Democratic opponent. But Professor Allan Lichtman's system, called "The Keys to the White House", involves disregarding the polls entirely. Instead, 13 metrics on a checklist are used to try and figure out who the successful candidate will be. "Why am I sure that Harris is going to win? Because it's only close on the polls, and my system ignores the polls," Professor Lichtman told CNN. The professor, who correctly predicted Mr Trump's win against Hillary Clinton in 2016, described polls as "snapshots" and said: "People don't respond to pollsters, they lie, they change their minds, and they have to guess who the likely voters are." His system, which he developed in the early 1980s with the Russian geophysicist Vladimir Keilis-Borok, analyses the political landscape through the lens of 13 true-false statements focused on the incumbent president's party. If six or more of the statements are false, then the challenger — in this case, Mr Trump — is predicted to win. As detailed below, his system currently concludes that eight of the 13 keys are in Ms Harris's favour - while three favour her Republican rival. Party Mandate: After the midterm elections, the incumbent party holds more seats in the US House of Representatives than it did after the previous midterm elections. FALSE Contest: There is no serious contest for the incumbent-party nomination. TRUE Incumbency: The incumbent-party candidate is the sitting president. FALSE Third party: There is no significant third-party or independent campaign. TRUE Short-term economy: The economy is not in recession during the election campaign. TRUE Long-term economy: Real per-capita economic growth during the term equals or exceeds mean growth during the previous two terms. TRUE Policy change: The incumbent administration effects major changes in national policy. TRUE Social unrest: There is no sustained social unrest during the term. TRUE Scandal: The incumbent administration is untainted by major scandal. TRUE Incumbent charisma: The incumbent-party candidate is charismatic or a national hero. FALSE Challenger charisma: The challenging-party candidate is not charismatic or a national hero. TRUE Foreign/military failure: The incumbent administration suffers no major failure in foreign or military affairs. LEANS FALSE Foreign/military success: The incumbent administration achieves a major success in foreign or military affairs. LEANS TRUE The election he got wrong was in 2000, when there were five false keys against the incumbent Democrats and Prof Lichtman predicted Democratic candidate and vice president Al Gore would win. Mr Gore won the popular vote, but Republican nominee George W Bush was declared the winner of the Electoral College by the Supreme Court 36 days after election day, following a lengthy legal battle.

Hamilton Saint Posted November 5 Share Posted November 5 (edited) Harris and her team have run an almost flawless campaign--impressive, given the relatively brief amount of time they've had. Every tactic seems to be the correct one (not playing the race card, for example, or dwelling on the "glass ceiling" she is about to shatter). Trump's campaign, on the other hand, (especially in the last month or so) has been a never-ending catalogue of pratfalls and strategic errors. Compare Trump's choice of VP candidate, for example, with the smart selection that Harris made. The focus of press coverage on polling results is foolish--the majority of polls are highly suspect (tainted by a practice known as "herding"). The key factor is the Democratic ability to get their supporters to the polls ("pulling the vote"). Anecdotal reporting suggests the Democrats are fired up and riding a wave of enthusiasm. There is a palpable sense of momentum in their favour. And they have a huge financial advantage (the campaign has raised over a billion dollars since Harris became the candidate), funding organisation and canvassing at the local level. Meanwhile, Trump's campaign seems to have run out of steam, and Trump himself is a much-diminished figure--physically and mentally. And his mental decline has led to alarming moments of disinhibited remarks and behaviours. To those outside the MAGA-cult, every event reinforces the fact that he is unfit for the job he is seeking. And, more prosaically, in the US system, electors tend to lean towards the more likable candidate, and the one who exudes confidence and talks about what they will do to improve things. Trump is nothing but an endless litany of grievance and hate. Edited November 5 by Hamilton Saint 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gloucester Saint Posted November 5 Share Posted November 5 (edited) The demographic to watch is non-College educated women, especially comparatively older ones. Used to vote Republican often but the group apparently breaking for Harris. Striking down Roe Vs Wade might be about to rebound on the GOP. Trump has been trapped on the issue a bit like Corbyn was with Brexit - as soon as he says anything vaguely pro-choice, the GOP fanatics and evangelicals have kicked off. Even if they aren’t of child bearing age any longer, they have daughters and grandchildren. And women vote more than men in America by an average of 4%.
