Lot’s of early voting this time around. Mom will be working the 6am-2pm shift at the polls. Beau and I always go to vote early morning, then go out for breakfast. Tradition!

I hope we can find our way through the throngs of voters; our polling place has to handle all 380 of us that day, LOL!

God Bless The Heartland! MAGA! :)

Actually, we who live in The Heartland never STOPPED Making America Great - no mater what either Leftist Coast TRIES to tell you!

We now FINALLY have a VOICE again due to President Trump! :)

I haven’t seen or heard much said about the elections accept for TV. No one is talking about it. Makes me think the socialist are feeling a bit low about the elections.

It's also a psychological technique designed to peel off any last minute, undecided, voters who do not identify with these traits.

Excellent point. It's also worth nothing that this is a fundamental Trump M.O. -- throw a claim out there that requires the negative to adopt a ludicrous position.

For example, his talk the other day about how "women want security" -- the MSM ridiculed him for it, but in doing so they were essentially claiming that "women do not want security," which is obviously false.

“White men, especially older, less educated, less affluent ones in small towns and rural areas.”

So, older white men in big cities, and
urban areas are more educated and
affluent?

Here’s what they really meant to say;
“They get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”

I don’t believe polls. The poll I believe in will be November 6th...

How much of the nationwide do you think if focused in New York and California?

On Levin’s TV show last night, he and pollster McLaughlin seemed to have the belief that the GOP voters won’t “come out” enough to give us the win. I may have interpreted it all wrong, but that was my impression. As for myself, I think it’s a broken-glass election for us.

“I lived in California then, and the race was called for Reagan on election day at 3:00 PM Pacific time.”

I remember that day so well. We lived in Hawaii then, and my sister called me at work to say Reagan had won. I believe I hadn’t even gone to lunch yet. Remember that, B77?
