    IA is a little concerning because they show no movement from 2020. Perhaps it’s just noise right now.

    SC is Bobby polarized in racial lines, so no Bush 2004 margin is in the cards. Trump should still take it by ten or so.

    FL seems too close given the registration trends and improvement in Hispanic numbers. Gun to my head, it will be closer to 10 than it is to 5.

    Kensington is in Bad Philadelphia according to Bitter, so no worries.

    “A Philadelphia man acted in self-defense when he shot a 16-year-old who attempted to rob him using a fake gun, according to police. The incident occurred just after 11 p.m. Sunday in the city’s Kensington neighborhood, as reported by 6abc in Philadelphia.

    The 16-year-old suspect, along with an accomplice, approached the 21-year-old man on the street and attempted to rob him by flashing what appeared to be a firearm. Unbeknownst to the teens, the victim was armed with a real 9 mm pistol and was also licensed to carry. In response to the threat, the man drew and fired his weapon, wounding the suspect in the leg as he turned to flee.

    Philadelphia police say the shooting, which was caught on surveillance video, was a clear case of self-defense.”

    School Shooters Distance Themselves From Tim Walz

    Babylon Bee 2:40 PM | October 02, 2024

    After Minnesota Governor and U.S. Vice Presidential candidate Tim Walz claimed he was friends with them in Tuesday night’s debate, school shooters across the nation were quick to distance themselves from “that total weirdo.” …

    “Yeah, we weren’t, like, friends or anything,” said Vance Walberry, who attempted a school shooting in Minnesota in 1982 but was tackled by the high school quarterback. “He was kinda strange. Kept lurking around the boys’ bathroom asking if anyone needed a tampon.” Walberry shook his head. “We don’t want anything to do with a freak like that.”

  50. Here are my thoughts on the apparent disparity between national polling and the state polling. First, Morning Consult is consistent. They are hard left and their national polling matches their state polling, both giving Obamala a 5 to 6 point national pop vote win, and over 300 EVs, in state polling. Not are far left is the national polling and state polling of Redfield and Wilton, and these numbers seem consistent internally with each other.

    Several other pollsters show Obamala up 4 or more, but several show a closer national race, or even a Trump lead like Quinnipiac.

    But looking at the battleground state polling, there are simply way too many polls, from normally leftist pollsters showing good news for Trump for the half-dozen or so national polls at Harris +4, +5, or +6 to be true.

    AZ: Suffolk, Trump +6, Siena/NY TImes, Trump +5

    GA: Quinnipiac, Trump +6, Siena/NY Times, Trump +3, ATL Jrnl Const, Trump +3

    NC: Quinnipiac, Trump +2, Wash Post, Trump +2, East Carolina U, Trump +2

    WI: Emerson, Trump +2

    PA: Many of these polls show a tie or Trump up 1 to 2.

    Several polls of NV and MI from left orgs are close.

    Then non-battlegrounds, NY average is Harris only +12.7. In California she’s off 5 from Biden 2020 numbers. And she certainly isn’t cutting closer margins in Florida, Ohio, Texas or other populous states.

    In short, there are MANY individual data points, dozens of state polls, that are not compatible with these Harris +7, Harris +6, Harris +5, or Harris +4 national polls.

    When we get into Harris +3 national, then its getting closer to the margin of error range that could account for the many state polls.
