May the gap continue to widen

Let’s hope majority of American voters become aware of the meaning of the right to choose for your self and the government choosing for you. By allowing the government to control what is best for you is a 200 year old way of ruling the state and people. And by choosing Trump and MAGA as your future government you will end up being controlled and robbed from the freedom you know today - period! If you want your children to grow up learning and understanding freedom and respect you are obligated to vote for the right government. Your chance to do right is now with president candidate Harris! In November you may have chosen freedom and mutual respect, or you have chosen authoritarianism and your children and later generations will be the victims. Vote Blue, vote Democrats!

Doesn't mean how people vote. Important is how to count...

Sounds like a cognitive bias

Pete Buttigieg served in the U.S. Navy Reserve as an intelligence officer from 2009 to 2017, attaining the rank of lieutenant. His service included a seven-month deployment to Afghanistan in 2014, where he worked in intelligence and was involved in various duties, including identifying and analyzing threats, and providing actionable intelligence to support military operations. His role also involved serving as a liaison between military and civilian authorities [oai_citation:1,Pete Buttigieg - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pete_Buttigieg) [oai_citation:2,PolitiFact | Another claim questioning Pete Buttigieg’s military service is wrong](https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/feb/27/facebook-posts/another-claim-questioning-pete-buttigiegs-military/). Buttigieg's military experience has been a significant part of his public persona, particularly during his campaigns for political office. He often speaks about how his service shaped his perspectives on leadership and public service [oai_citation:3,Pete Buttigieg - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pete_Buttigieg) [oai_citation:4,PolitiFact | Another claim questioning Pete Buttigieg’s military service is wrong](https://

Are we going to ignore the half dozen other polls saying Trump is ahead? Also, here’s a hint check out the cross tabs on this poll ;) but keep running this narrative and see how it works out :-)

Latest Real Clear Politics average poll: Trump +3.1 https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/president/general/2024/trump-vs-biden Latest news on a debate: Kamala Harris refused Trump's offer to debate in August, and has yet to sit for any interview, has faced only a few actual questions from the press since the Dem party bi-passed the democratic process and anointed her their standard bearer for 2024 without a single vote won. Policy update: Kamala is for what she was against in order to not lose, but not forced to explain why.
