I have a very difficult time believing that this is actually true, mainly because it seems to contradict evolutionary theory. But, according to a Gallup poll, over 22% of Gen Z adults identify as LGBTQ+, and the overall proportion of all adults who do so has more than doubled since 2012. This seems implausible to me, although I do not doubt Gallup's numbers themselves. Almost a quarter of Gen Z adults identify as LGBTQ+ https://t.co/hDaW7DlBZq— Axios (@axios) March 13, 2024Axios' analysis of the poll is, as is always the case with Axios, short and to the point. 7.6% of adults...

Former President Donald Trump is trouncing President Joe Biden in Maine, a Pan Atlantic Research survey found. Maine is different than the vast majority of states in awarding electoral votes, utilizing the congressional district method. Maine has two congressional districts and awards electoral votes to the popular winner across the state. However, it also awards electoral college votes to the popular vote winner in each district. Overall, the state has four electoral votes up for grabs, but it could, hypothetically, result in split electoral votes, given the way the state does this. The Pan Atlantic Research survey found Trump leading...

For almost a century, there has been one constant in American politics: Jews vote for Democrats. There are multiple reasons for this fact but, regardless of the reason, the one thing Democrats could rely on was the Jewish vote. However, the Biden administration’s increasingly open hostility to Israel may be changing that pattern. One poll out of New York shows something remarkable: More than 50% of New York’s Jews plan to vote for Donald Trump! When Eastern European Jews came to America, they were escaping tsarist oppression. For them, the opposite of tsarism was Marxism. This binary viewpoint wasn’t unique...
