(1,665 posts)I appreciate posts like this one (though I recognize that 2020 is not 2016 in terms of the political factors at play and lessons learned).
No one wants to relive the sad experience that was Election Night 2016 and these warning threads come from a place of deep, abiding (a-Biden?) love for our cause. Especially given the lack of scruples of this administration, it would do us all good to mix enthusiasm with steadfast work ethic, assuming nothing.
I have occasionally posted threads pondering about certain polls that show some races tighter than usual, hoping to spark a discussion of the poll, if it's truly cause for concern, and if it's a problematic poll, what are the reasons why it's unreliable, etc. Sometimes people will engage, but many folks will mock or dismiss such a discussion.
I'll be happy if the extremely rude "your concern is noted" response on this site fades away.
