Republicans usually only pull out when they expose themselves to little kids. Otherwise Republicans never pull out, whether it’s war or in the bedroom.

I think many areas out west haven't seen the decreases the rest of the country has. National average is down 22 cents since last month. Florida has gone down another 4 cents in the past week.

CastletonSnob Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Is it true that polls usually skew toward older voters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b_m_b_m_b_m Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 1 hour ago, CastletonSnob said: Is it true that polls usually skew toward older voters? No, and decent pollsters weigh by demographics which also includes urban/suburban/rural and educational attainment. The problem with polling is response/non-response bias from groups with low social trust. That is, white people with low educational attainment in the Midwest. Note that polls were mostly correct in 2018 so it is likely that trump himself drags out some hard to poll types making polls with him on the ballot more difficult, or so the theory goes.

CastletonSnob Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Consider that according to Wikipedia, in the 2014 Texas gubernatorial election, only 33.7% of registered voters, and 25.0% of the voting age population voted, and in 2018, 53.01% of registered voters, and 42.07% of the voting age population voted.
