"Trump remains underwater in all seven of the swing states that he carried in the 2024 presidential election.

His approval rating continuing to decline in those states could hurt Republicans in November’s midterm elections, and allow Democrats to pick up key seats in the House and Senate.

Arizona: -12 (42 percent approve, 54 percent disapprove)
Georgia: -20 (37 percent approve, 57 percent disapprove)
Michigan: -20 (38 percent approve, 57 percent disapprove)
Nevada: -24 (35 percent approve, 59 percent disapprove)
North Carolina: -14 (41 percent approve, 55 percent disapprove)
Pennsylvania: -18 (39 percent approve, 56 percent disapprove)
Wisconsin: -13 (41 percent approve, 54 percent disapprove)

Even in Florida, a former swing state that has been reliably Republican in recent years, Trump’s net approval rating is -12, with 42 percent approval and 54 percent disapproval."

Quite frankly, I don't give a solid shit what is approval / disapproval is in North Dakota and Alabama. Not even here in VT where he's about as popular as bubonic plague. He's underwater in Texas slightly more than Florida. That's encouraging.

You should not discount misogyny & racism (double whammy for Kamala).

I can't speak for other states. But PA had/has Dem gov and Sec of State (responsible for elections). Also small precincts and 67 counties. Counties run the elections. PA uses voter-verified paper ballots and risk limiting audits.

You should check this link to learn about how individual states run their elections, and where the vulnerabilities are:
https://verifiedvoting.org/

Unless you think this guy (Al Schmidt) is corrupt - anything is possible - then to tamper with elections significantly * in PA would require a whole new mechanism that the previous experts have not thought of, or have chosen to hide from us. The latter would be a pretty wild CT. The former ... I guess is possible but gives Muskrat and his henchmen more credit for savviness than I'm willing to give.

* significantly >> of course there will always be a few people who try to vote illegally. The percentage is vanishingly small and has never been found to influence the election. The other mechanism - messing with the data - would require messing with data at the precinct level and evading audit detection.

It is one of the 4 corner states. I believe that you are looking at Wyoming which has a small population by size but a number of wealthy/rich people that dominate the rest of the population. Lots of oil and gas. . . .

let alone by that much. Not that I'm questioning that number. Lots of retirees here, many of whom I marched with at my local "No Kings" protests.

This is probably why the State Senate voted down Trump's attempts at redistricting the state TWICE. They saw the dummymander....

Sanders was overwhelmingly popular there, because he addressed class oppression. But the identity politickers sneered at them for being dirty white workers. Kos celebrated their covid mortality.

Bear in mind, there are klan types there, but also a lot of simple honest workers who were ready to hear a message of class oppression. Instead, we drove them into Fox News' arms.

This is. a state where the US Army Air Corps bombed striking workers. We could have had them.

I’m sure we all have the misfortune of having tried to reason with people who choose to pollute their consciousness with this potent mix of hatred, propaganda, and lies. It’s frustrating. Every single truth we here believe about tRump (pedophilia,, corruption, sexual assault charges), even things which are verifiable and true (he IS a felon!), they dismiss and accuse Biden or Clinton (take your pick) of doing and being. They will stare an an image of the deserted site of the 250 “state fair” while the announcer tells them “thousands are here enjoying this magnificent event” and not bat an eye.

For a democracy to survive something has to be done about this, but how can you shut down a lie factory without being accused of shredding the right to free speech? That plus the 24/7 hate radio is what has brought your country to this sad state. People are voting for their own destruction.
