1. good

[Blue Owl]

2. K&R

[Yavin4]

3. We turnout. We win.

That's what every poll is telling us. Show up and vote, and we will win.

[underpants]

5. Yep. It's all about turnout.

There can’t be anyone who’s even close to undecided.

[gratuitous]

6. Which explains Trump's strategy right now

Anything to depress turnout, because if this is anywhere near a fair fight, Trump loses and loses by a mile.

[PSPS]

13. That's always been the key. There are far more democrats that republicans for a long time now.

[Blue_playwright]

15. Did you see the graph posted yesterday?

It showed pie charts for Michigan, I think, and the vote was two-thirds for Dems but the seats in the state legislature were two-thirds Pukes. It’s insane that it has gotten this way.

[tishaLA]

25. That sounds like WI

They've gerrymandered the shit out of that place and wresting control from them is going to be yeoman's work.

[Ilsa]

49. Yeah, if you have to drive through

one or two other legislative districts to get to your polling place, it's pretty much a given. Sucks.

[aggiesal]

64. I'd like to see that pie chart, if you could supply a link. Thanks! N/T

[Tommymac]

70. Same in PA. Gerrymandered the shit out of the state, the minority controls the legislature

as a result.

That's why the Killer Clown didn't want a real census.

Massive turnout is the key - the ONLY way Dems win. We need at least a 6% win to prevent theft.

Let's Do it.

[ailsagirl]

45. I don't know about now, but historically...

there have always been more Dems but, sadly, not so many vote

While the repukes do

[iluvtennis]

30. + 1 nt

[grantcart]

58. Yes. Looking at the polls you don't know if they are using 2016 or 2018 turnout models

[Midnight Writer]

4. Trump better throw some mean tweets at his buddies.

[jorgevlorgan]

7. Yeah Biden seems to make to be making a lot of headway in OH

And I don't think Trump has the resources to stay competitive if Biden pulls away there

[OrlandoDem2]

8. Anybody reading my list who knows a potential Biden voter who's unregistered, please get them

to register and then GOTV!

[Thekaspervote]

9. Whoa Nellie.. If we win OH, it really is gonna be an early night!!

Go Joe..go Kamala..we’re here GOTV

[gristy]

10. Link to the detail

Tremendous 8-12 point swing compared to 2016 from dump to Biden for these states.

[octoberlib]

11. Thank you, gristy!

[Rice4VP]

12. Biden's next stop should be Ohio then drive over to PA

[tiptonic]

14. Good news

Good news but don't forget the Putin factor. We have to vote. Please vote people.

[regnaD kciN]

16. Yeah, but what are the results if they "get rid of the ballots"...?

[ananda]

17. Whoa!

That's a big shift toward Dems in Ohio,
as opposed to 2016.

[BadgerMom]

18. Excellent

[Thunderbeast]

19. FOLLOW THROUGH!

Let's get so many voters out in Florida, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania that the outcome will be virtually CERTAIN by 9:00 Eastern time!

CRUSH AND HUMILIATE!

Take the Senate
Kill the Filibuster

Use a simple majority to pass M4A or a public option and restore pre-existing conditions language. Medicare is a FEDERAL program...not subject to the whims of state legislators.

Pass national legislation guaranteeing abortion rights.

Restore and strengthen the Voting Rights Act.

Rejoin the world in fighting for the climate! Expand incentives for cutting use of fossil fuels.

Let an independent Justice Department unpack the many crimes of the Trump regime. Prosecute!

[MyOwnPeace]

29. I like the way you think!!!!

Quite ambitious - and ALL are worthy goals. It would be wonderful to have a political party that was strong and united enough to support and deliver those goals.

Right now, I'll be thrilled to see BunkerBoy thrown out of OUR White House - taking the Senate would be the icing on the cake.

From there - WE GO FOR IT!!!!!!

[whopis01]

42. Taking the Senate is critical

If we don’t, then McConnell will spend the next 4 years doing everything he can to block any action from President Biden and the House. His goal will be to make Biden seem ineffective and weaken his chances for reelection in 24.

[MyOwnPeace]

46. You ARE correct!!!!!

We MUST take the Senate - they control EVERYTHING! McTurtle gummed up the 8 years of the Obama Administration, especially the Garland nomination, and would continue to do so for the next 4 to 8 were he to remain the Majority Leader in the Senate.
We were SO fortunate (well, we DID work hard to make it happen!) to take the House in 2018 - I have nightmares thinking about what this KKKountry would be like now if we had not.

GET OUT THE VOTE - WE NEED THE SENATE!!!!!

[coti]

34. We need to focus on shoring up our democracy itself.

The boat is sinking, we need to plug the holes. Trump pointed them all out to us and there are so, so many.

[AlexSFCA]

55. every one of those programs could be blocked by SC

before ever taking an effect. Presidency and congress are important, but SC has the final say on everything, except military matters. Expanding court to 11 would be most important objective for dems.

[lagomorph777]

66. 11 won't do it (6-5 Reptilican majority). Must expand to 13 seats.

[BlueWavePsych]

20. Ohio +5 ... coming from Fox, it must be even higher!

[Brother Mythos]

21. So far, so good.

[smirkymonkey]

22. K&R

[djacq]

23. Ouch... From State TV no less.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

36. Deep State TV, no less.

KY...........

[warmfeet]

24. My personal poll,

the orange dump = prison for life.

Joe Biden/Kamala Harris = Leaders of our nation.

I hope we make it so.

[grobertj]

26. I lived in OH for 25 years, and it's really a purple state. Trump has lost women in suburbs.

And there are a LOT of suburbs in OH.

[FakeNoose]

39. Happy to hear that

I believe PA and OH are "brothers from another mother." We have so much in common, and I want to believe that Ohio voters are finally waking up. Just as PA voters are.

[ffr]

27. Putin better start dropping $ billions into tRump's coffers or else his ROI in America will fail

and democracy will endure.

[JDC]

28. Now we GOTV

[calimary]

35. Now we MUST GOTV!

[Norbert]

31. I hope my home state is coming to her senses

[videohead5]

32. In 2016

We had lower voter turnout and that's why Trump is the president. Trump received less votes in Wisconsin than Romney received in 2012 and still won.

[Awsi Dooger]

33. They all look overly favorable

Sorry, Nevada is not an 11 point state. Nothing about that state suggests a margin anything like that. I lived there for 24 years. Hillary carried Nevada by 2.4%

It causes me to doubt the entirety. I am not a believer in Ohio either, given the demographics of that state.

[BannonsLiver]

62. Not surprised these polls produced obvious annoyance.

Seems to be a recurring theme anytime there is ANY positive news for Biden, polling or otherwise.

[Tribetime]

37. I'd love to hear "at 9:30 eastern time this us a biggie

Ohio has gone for O'Biden..😁

[DesertRat]

38. k&r

[texasfiddler]

40. Hasn't Ohio been rocked with republicon corruption this year?

I realize that republican corruption is a redundant term now a days.

[James48]

41. As much as I'd like to believe that- I don't.

It’s Fox News, people.

They are intentionally making Trump sound like an underdog now, so that in the last week or two, suddenly the numbers will break all Trump’s way, and he will look like he’s got momentum.

Don’t believe anything from Fox. Work our asses off, make phone calls, sign up your friends, and let’s get out the vote!!!

[ailsagirl]

44. I think that's sound advice

Anything from faux I take with a boulder of salt...

Mostly I just disregard them

[MyOwnPeace]

48. "I take with a boulder o salt..."

Well stated!

[ailsagirl]

43. Florida definitely worries me

I read somewhere the two were one point apart-- hope that's wrong

[Dr. Jack]

47. Damn! Those are some great results!

I hate that Fox is one of the best pollsters in the country. It means I can't 100% hate Fox like I want to.

[Ilsa]

50. I'm hoping for an electoral blowout for Biden/Harris.

I want trumpty-numpty to have to fight to get Texas!

[Johnny2X2X]

51. FOX News

What’s funny about this FOX News Poll is that FOX News won’t use it in their broadcast. Instead they’ll use joke Rasmussen.

[DLCWIdem]

74. They used them today and Trump started

Trump start tweeting and whining

[OldManTarHeel]

52. I would never trust a Fox News poll . . .

never ever.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

53. Yeah! Of course, these results are....

pre-hacking, pre-voter intimidation and pre-other malicious right-wing acts of election chicanery.

In addition, the flood of public and social media lies and deceptions is just beginning....

But strong GOTV will make sure we hold those margins......

[oldsoftie]

54. Oh & Pa still too close.

[RazBerryBeret]

56. PLEASE, Ohio...

don't disappoint me again! I live in a pretty red area of Ohio and the recent pop up Trump signs all around me makes me feel sick.

[LudwigPastorius]

57. Some major battleground states are still too close for comfort.

Of course, I'm happy that Biden is on the plus side in many of these places, but taking into account the margin of polling error, and the inevitable election day Republican fuckery, the numbers are too low for me to feel that we're cruising to an easy win.

[PaulRevere08]

59. Great! Now stay focused, eye on the ball, eye on the ball. Play hard to the whistle.

38 DAYS 12 HOURS 56 MINUTES

[Lucky Luciano]

60. As bad as Fox is, their polls have not been too terrible. It's not Rasmussen. nt

[wryter2000]

61. OH and PA

Biden is ahead 5 points with only 5% left of undecideds or "other" for Trump to win over. PA is 7 points ahead with only 5% left.

If those numbers hold, those two states are lost to Trump. I saw similar figures on MI and WI the other day. It's possible all four states are lost to Trump.

If Biden can win outright on election night or the next day, Trump won't be able to throw a bunch of chaos into the mix. He can attempt to win via courts, but he'll be pretty unpersuasive.

[BannonsLiver]

63. Looks good

Despite what DU’s own resident polling unskewer thinks.

[LiberalLovinLug]

65. I'm just disgusted that up to 45% of a State's voting population STILL backs Trump

And think he is perfectly fine commander in chief.

Mind boggling.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

67. I suspect it will be like the 2008 election...

... except Indiana will be red and Arizona will be blue this time.

By the way, Obama winning Indiana in 2008 seems like ancient history now! What the heck happened to that state in the meantime?!

I'm not too surprised by Ohio. It will probably be very close, but I think Biden will win here.

There was a LOT of animosity toward the Clintons around here, and obviously in states like PA, MI, WI and IA too. With so much anger being expressed by my past coworkers, I'm not even sure that Bill Clinton would have won in 2000 if he could have run for a third term. So don't take the results from 2016 as some kind of permanent change in the Midwest!

Edit: And maybe Biden can win GA and TX too!

[DarthDem]

68. Whoa. I mean, whoa

First, Fox's polling outfit doesn't seem to have a thumb on the scale like Razzy or Trafalgar to drive public perception.

But even if they did and these polls are a product of that, how does it help drive a pro-Trump narrative to show him utterly non-competitive in Nevada, trailing quite seriously in Ohio, and leading more than comfortably in Pennsylvania? If that's a head fake to trick the Biden campaign, I'm not really seeing how it achieves that goal.

So these may actually be real. The NV and PA results are certainly quite believable, and I don't know if anyone really knows what's going on in OH.

In short, great news.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

69. Fox News actually has a decent polling outfit...

... despite how their "news" is full of lies and right-wing propaganda.

538.com has Biden slightly favored in Ohio now, and that's based on multiple polls.

[DarthDem]

71. Yeah

You're right, and you ought to know based on your handle! I have some connections to Ohio, but haven't been there in about four years. The summer before the (ugh) 2016 election, in fact.

I guess I just lost faith in Ohio a while back, and have probably been lulled by the media not covering it as a battleground at ALL this cycle.

What do you make of Biden's chances to win it?

[Buckeye_Democrat]

72. In my area (near Dayton), I'm not seeing nearly...

... as many Trump signs this time. They were all over the place in 2016. Yet Trump still only won this county by about 1% four years ago.

During Trump's recent rally in Dayton (Vandalia), which I watched on a local TV channel, his super-spreader kooks were mostly loud when he criticized Clinton. They weren't very loud whenever he criticized Biden.

So my sense is that Biden will fare much better, and the polling supports it!

[DarthDem]

75. Thanks

We'll see! Interesting.
