And 30 percent of repugs excited. Similar results for Presidential election.
Anyone have thoughts or suggestions for how we, as individuals can excite more Dems?

(745 posts)I'm not excited because we're going in with a disadvantage for the senate and congress and will likely lose one or both. Doesn't mean I won't vote.

Voter suppression is Yellow Journalism.

(32,098 posts)It won't just be run-of-the-mill "excited." It will be the "pissed-off" kind. And,it won't be just Democrats, either.

(7,287 posts)22% of the population watch CNN?
22% of their total viewers?
22% of all cable news viewers?
22% of the population who live in say, Louisville Kentucky?
22% of the population who live in San Francisco?
Mesa Arizona?
Salt Lake City?
Boise Idaho?
all of North Dakota?
CNN didn't poll me or my neighbors. (we talk to each other all the time, and this subject definitely would have been covered)
These polls are not informative of reality.
22% 🙄
