1. This is why I'm not believing shit polls

Hell even D's are up on R's in Texas! Even in 2018 and 2020 they outnumbered us. This is why I'm taking all polls as bullshit.

[Rhiannon12866]

2. Not to mention, there are more Democrats than Republicans

And high turnout always favors Democrats!

[vercetti2021]

3. Exactly

I feel we will do fine on election day too. People are saying Roe isn't important, but it is very important because its a fucking right! I know inflation is bad, but electing those fascist bastards are not gonna fix it. YOU CANNOT FIX IT IF ITS WORLDWIDE! God these people and I mean those like swing voters are so dumb to believe that a magical R will fix it all. It will not. I hope people realize that.

4. Just look at Kansas, people (especially women) are awake and turning out!

Nobody is sleeping through this election, just look at the viewership of the January 6th hearings. Voting numbers are already breaking records and that's only where early voting is available now. And absentee ballots and election day voting is still to come...

[vercetti2021]

5. Exactly all this and more

Fuck the MSM. We control the narrative. They said Newsom would be recalled, he blew out his previous win. Kansas, Alaska, NY. We blew it out. I bet we would have kept VA Gov if that election was after Dobbs.

But I'm so sick of hearing it. I see the proof in early voting. Not some boneheads in a diner telling us how evil them libs are for eating children and giving away free hormones to children to turn them super gay.

6. It's Early But Women Lead Men Voters 54.3% to 44.8% In States That Record Gender

I'm banking on a HUGE gender cap to carry Dems to victory in the House. I think Senate is a given.

Reporting states with gender data: GA, KS, MI, NC

Gender Count Percent
Female 1,123,442 54.3
Male 926,570 44.8
Unknown 18,500 0.9
TOTAL 2,068,512 100.0

10. There are a half million more women in NC

registered to vote than men.

I went to vote early in person yesterday here in NC and the voting place was packed. My county is a Democratic stronghold in NC.

8. I hope all the polls that forecast us losing the House

energize people to get out and VOTE BLUE

[Rhiannon12866]

9. I just looked it up (again) - early voting starts here in New York next week

11. I hope 2022's turnout upends 538's "generic-ballot" polls and proves them wrong.
