Many polls, many people say the Republicans are going gain control of congress and at the same time it is being reported there is record breaking voter turnout. That my friends is a contradiction. Record breaking voter turnout favors Democrats.

(5,677 posts)someone realized the exit polls could be a problem and so they were no longer done. By the media. The media has now found an additional way to help the ruling class- float a lot of fake predictions to provide plausible cover for after-vote fraud.

(11,320 posts)had Ds more inclined toward early voting ... Not sure if that continues to hold true. Or, another way of putting it - does 'conventional' tell us much about voting (or anything else really) in 2022?

It's okay for you to accept good news. This is a site for Democrats that support Democrats.

(42,334 posts)The turnout completely contradicts them.
I actually saw somewhere on MSM someone claiming that turnout was low this far, which is entirely false.

(44,973 posts)High turnout doesn't necessarily mean that democrats will win. Republicans could be voting in large numbers.
You can't just look at turnout and assume democrats are winning. And never mind we are talking about turnout in early voting only, not overall turnout. High early voting turnout doesn't necessarily mean overall high turnout.

(42,334 posts)Here in FL, more Rs are voting early unfortunately.
However in other states like Georgia, early voting among Ds is breaking records.

I dont know how well I could watch it on election day without having a meltdown.
If the fascists win I will feel not safe.
Its overwhelmingly anxious time for me.

(4,913 posts)It has been reported young people are not turning out in big numbers, YET! I believe young people are going to come out in big numbers on Election Day. That could turn close races for the Democrats.
Young people care about their rights being taken away. They care about climate change. They care about gay rights. They care about the right to choose.
