2. Bullshit polls. Did Trump pay for these? I think these pollsters

Just pull numbers out of their ass.

[MOMFUDSKI]

3. Stop

It

[Elessar Zappa]

4. So we all need to do our part.

One, there’s other recent polls that don’t show this. Two, if those numbers are accurate, it’s up to us to donate our time and money to Biden’s campaign. Every able-bodied Democrat needs to volunteer locally. Every Democrat needs to try and convince one or three non-voters or undecided voters to vote for Biden. Biden’s staying in the race. You saw his letter, right? It’s time to get to work.

5. Polls mean nothing right now. Nothing. The election is 4 months away.

With the weak debate performance and all this media-narrative chatter of course we may see a TEMPORARY dip in polls.

Polls mean NOTHING. They are NOT PREDICTIVE OF FINAL ELECTION RESULTS especial FOUR MONTHS OUT.

6. I just don't believe these.

I know it’s naive. But Nevada by 6? No way. Every election, republicans think they finally get Nevada and never do. If these are numbers in October, then I might give a little credence, but these are emotional numbers that will go away. My opinion of course.

7. We just had a poll from Reuters with entirely different results.

Why I say they're all over the place.

[Model35mech]

8. They are for the pols depending on a landslide to carry them to victory.

Horrible is mostly dependent on the effect of the poll on a desired outcome.

The pols who have to be carried by the top of the ticket see this differently than those who are confident of their ability to win on their own.

[Think. Again.]

9. I bought an 8 track player from Emerson once...

It only played 1 1/2 tracks.

10. I've been trying to find a link to this poll. CANNOT FIND ONE

This '"news" was posted on Xitter, and I specifically asked the poster for the link. Crickets...

11. Biden has made his decision, he is NOT stepping down. Which part of that don't people understand?

[BootinUp]

12. Have you considered that you, too, could be influenced

By foreign psyops on fucking twitter?

[LonePirate]

16. This tweet is from an American election analyst. He's not some Russian psy ops!

The absolute denial of the state of the race here on DU is pathetic. We seem to be an in the early stages of becoming a cult all on our own.

[BootinUp]

17. The absolute failure of you and others

To put early polls in context is a disgrace. You are likely influenced by psyops.

[Elessar Zappa]

19. There was a poll released a few days ago that said that 70% of Democrats want Biden to stay in.

Another poll said 60%. Either way, the MAJORITY don’t want him to step aside.

[shrike3]

22. reuters had Biden leading in Michigan and Wisconsin.

Which poll do we believe?

[Doodley]

23. Agreed. This is a crisis, and we don't have the luxury placing our feelings for any one person above defeating fascism

[shrike3]

26. Which poll do we believe?

Reuters had Biden closing the gap with Trump.

[jmbar2]

33. So does Bloomberg

35. "We" may not apply here, at all.

Speak for yourself.

[The Unmitigated Gall]

13. Disinformation campaigns

Are going to concentrate on pushing democrats to throw up their hands and walk away in despair. Crappy, unsourced "polls" like this are just one of the tools to achieve this.
We're four months out. Leave this crap alone and get to work!

[Doodley]

32. We are only four months out. What scenario could be the catalyst that puts Joe ahead?

[Takket]

14. It is the 10-12% not accounted for here that will decide the election

Also keep in mind polls over sample rethugs and in the case of the NYT especially they don’t do not report that fact.

[SocialDemocrat61]

15. Just means we have to work

all the more harder in those states.

Good thing the election is months away.

[cally]

18. Those seem somewhat better than I was expecting

I would guess most of those are within the margin of error. Those are all possible wins with work and 4 months to go.

[FloridaBlues]

20. I think we expected bad poll numbers right now after 24/7 for week and half

Polls will change. Notice trump top ceiling is 47 he won’t grow more than that. Biden’s numbers will pick up. Not sure about Emerson polling firm

[Fiendish Thingy]

21. Link to pollster site?

Numbers are useless without being able to examine sample size and methodology

[Ferrets are Cool]

24. Bullshit. Pure lies.

[ms liberty]

25. Today is July 8th. If today was October 8th, I'd be concerned

Today, not so much except I wish Democrats would start going on offense for our party and our President.

[Bluethroughu]

27. I'm calling BS!

The media is complicit in misinformation.

People are not showing their support for these fascist enablers.

[LisaL]

28. We had some horrible press after the debate.

There is no way to go but up!

[Self Esteem]

29. Biden trailed in every one of these Emerson polls from before the debate.

They moved - but not significantly.

So, this feels like a meh.

[jmbar2]

30. Folks here on DU can find no trace of this poll - fake news

[Lovie777]

34. At this point in time, I totally agree............................

and per Alex Ward (haven't posted on X since Feb.) to boost posted it was conducted a couple of days after the debate.

Hummmmmmmmmmmmmm.

[LuckyCharms]

31. Knock knock

Who's there?

Emerson.

Emerson who?

Emerson shitty lookin' poll results.

[AltairIV]

36. BS

Last poll posted at Emerson polling is from June, and has Trump at 46% Biden at 45%. It is a national poll with no break down by state. I can find no such results from any source with the numbers used in the original Tweet. My opinion is that Mr herrin pulled them out of his ass.
