@gelliottmorris The problem with modern polling is it’s weighted to reflect the pollster’s guesstimate of the makeup of the electorate. The problem with Selzer is it’s unweighted. Pick your poison!
A frank and productive exchange of views with my counterpart on key issues like expanding the global supply of candy and toys and tightening sanctions against chores.
Trump promised mass deportations in ‘16
He failed. His deportation rate was well below Obama & Bush.

inflation down, employment up
no recession
it's a story of success https://t.co/ta00BA30ay

And when they do get the news, they see the Fox News-edited, manipulated, sanitized version which omits his off-the-wall insanity and repackages it into soundbites which almost appear as though they could be spoken by a normal, rational human being.
It’s the Great Sort! Rs are leaving CA and NY for “safe states” like Florida and Montana (cf. Tester-Sheehy), while college-educated D’s are moving toward urban areas with professional jobs including Texas.
NYT/Siena also conducted polls in Florida & Texas
While Harris predictably trails in both (and their Florida poll is a clear outlier), it points to a narrower Electoral College bias for Trump
Florida
🔴 Trump: 55% (+13 rounded)
🔵 Harris: 41%
Texas
🔴 Trump: 50%
🔵 Harris: 44%
