It’s late and I don’t want to raise my blood pressure right now, so I refrained from reading them.

especially from RWers.

One basically claimed that R's will win hands down, but he or they don't, he knows for sure that Dems will quickly print ballots and forged them and submit them in favor of D's.

So there you have it, Dems win, they committed fraud. If R's win, it was a fair and balance win.

These people are sick.

DU needs these polls to have a daily freak out. It's a common theme lately here. Panic doom and gloom

as in 2017 (the last gov election). Early votes are traditionally more heavily Dem than Rep.

I'm close to just exiting DU for a bit. Least until the election is over on Tuesday. This place is putting out so much negativity

I believe you are referring to the B/C rated co/efficient poll that was Republican commissioned and showed a +4 Trumpkin lead

There was also an A rated Fox poll that was not commissioned and showed an 8 point Trumpkin lead with likely voters.

he wants to outlaw abortion, but he's been intentionally hiding it throughout this campaign. If he should win, Virginia is going to be Texas the Sequel.
