> Vice President Harris has jumped to a three percentage point lead over former President Trump in Iowa, according to the final Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa Poll of the cycle.
Honestly a bit surprised by this. I would have thought Boomers were more skeptical about voting machines than young voters.
> Gen Z and Millennial voters are more skeptical about ballot-counting machines than older Americans, who by a clear majority trust machines more than people when it comes to counting votes, according to the latest Axios Vibes survey by The Harris Poll.
Lol. This is awesome. What a bunch of douchebag losers.
Yes, definitely give everyone treats. Not everyone has the opportunity to dress up for various reasons.
I was once a proponent of cashless societies. Not anymore. Too many vulnerabilities, too many ways for governments to take control of your finances.
If Republicans get their way, voting by anything other than in-person on election day will be banned.
> A new internal memo by Tony Fabrizio, chief pollster for all three of Donald Trump's presidential campaigns, tells the former president he's in a radically better position than he was right before the 2020 election.
> Why it matters: The memo reflects the exuberance that Trump staffers and allies exude in interviews and behind-the-scenes conversations. The optimistic framing could make it even more difficult for Trump followers to accept a loss as legitimate.
> The memo, addressed to "TEAM TRUMP," has the subject line: "PRESIDENT TRUMP IS ON THE VERGE."
The ATL area is carrying the state of Georgia now. That's what has changed over the past three decades. The GOP has a hard time in any state where there's a large dominant urban area. That's not really a new thing.
I commend the effort and the long post to explain yourself, but it's ultimately conjecture. None of the battleground states will go "decisively" to any of the candidates.
> Half of Gen Z voters — and 1 in 4 U.S. voters overall — have lied to people close to them about who they're voting for, according to the latest Axios Vibes survey by The Harris Poll.
> The findings raise big questions about the limits and future of polling, which relies on voters giving responses reflecting their real-life political behavior.
And watch a ton of women stand in line on election day to vote for Trump.
> Weekly church attendees who are white largely favor Donald Trump, while Black churchgoers tend to back Vice President Kamala Harris, according to a new survey.
No. The Republican Party is now a cult devoted to a person. The party will not be able to move on until that person is out of the picture.
With just over a week to go before Election Day, the former president will take the stage at one of the country’s most iconic venues, hosting a hometown rally to deliver his campaign’s closing message.
There has been a lot of talk to pressure Democrats on the Arab issue, including during the primaries. At the end of the day, the Democratic agenda is much more friendly toward Palestine than the Republican agenda. Most Arab-Americans are fully aware of that and it will probably show on election day. But they may as well try to get as many concessions as possible before the election by threatening to withhold their vote. Makes sense.
if she had taken a position like, "Israel has a right to defend itself, but the bloodshed in Gaza has gone on long enough, and we must acknowledge that the Netanyahu administration has been a major obstacle in ceasefire negotiations," she would have been massively more appealing to Palestinian supporters
Thing is that she doesn't really have to. She's already massively more attractive to Palestinian supporters than Trump or not voting. That's the problem with a two-party system with only two real choices.
Fact is that no matter what position Kamala takes on this, she'll lose votes somewhere and win votes somewhere. Most Jewish people vote for Democrats. Trump just straight up does not care about Palestine. That's a much more simplistic take.
Republicans won't care. It's projection.
Yes, it's definitely worth mentioning. Thanks.
It's also the same people who claim that moral integrity is the end-all-be-all in leadership while having no problem supporting a person for the ultimate leadership position whose views on women include "grab'em by the pussy." The moral superiority is pretty much gone.
This year's presidential election could see a historic gender gap as young women line up behind Democrat Kamala Harris' bid to be the first female president.
Definitely. There's a difference between evangelical Christians and progressive Christians. Evangelicals consider themselves "born again" and are usually very conservative and staunchly Republican and are usually Trump supporters. Those are the ones mentioned here.
"...until it's convenient to advance my own agenda, of course."
It's only generic when you don't know your history. Trump doesn't exactly come across as a history scholar, though. He also doesn't care either way.
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump unleashed a series of personal attacks at Vice President Kamala Harris.
Axios does not have a paywall
> White evangelical Protestants (75%) are most likely to favor militarized encampments for undocumented immigrants, followed by 61% of white Catholics.
Former President Donald Trump is blasting federal emergency responders whose work in North Carolina has been stymied by armed harassment and a deluge of misinformation.
> Trump's falsehoods — and what Democrats say is the threat he poses to democracy — have even some Democrats questioning whether their party should accept a loss in the Nov. 5 election.
> While 19% of Republicans say Trump should reject the election results if he loses, 12% of Democrats say Kamala Harris should do the same if she loses.
AP Investigation finds a growing number of military and veterans are following a path to radicalization, extremism and deadly violence.
The first widening of the gender wage in 20 years is the latest indication that many women have paid a price for leaving the workforce at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, either because they lost their jobs or because they quit because of caretaking responsibilities.
Christian nationalist leaders are telling followers that Vice President Kamala Harris is under the influence of a “Jezebel spirit."
A student loan cancellation program for public workers has granted relief to more than 1 million Americans — up from just 7,000 who were approved before it was updated by the Biden administration two years ago.
