Primary exit polls are a smaller piece of the overall electorate. On a good day it’s 50% of the democratic voters that will vote in a general election.
they are a subset of a subset

None of this matters. From the beginning, I clearly said that the majority of dem voters support it.
The exit polling backs that up.
That’s not the case man.
the majority of dem voters are voters that participated in the general election.
So your argument is that despite the fact that we know, from exit polling, that the majority of Democratic primary voters support it...if we asked that same question of all Democratic voters in the general, it would flip and the majority would oppose it?
Doubtful.
it’s 100% true. Primary voters are more care more about specific subjects

Primary voters also tend to be highly partisan, which helps explain why ideas at the fringes of each party (free college for all, a giant wall along the Mexican-US border) gain traction during the primaries.
Here's some more recent data (Feb 13-18)
I have a hard time believing the majority of Dem Voters don't want it, just can't see it.
Just gotta wait for these Republicans, old people, and Biden Boyz to get out the way.

Medicare for all is supported by most but not with the caveat that private insurance is eliminated.
Its how pollsters word questions to support their ideas
What other polls? There’s plenty of info that show if you include the option of eliminate health insurance everything plummets.
it’s basic politics.
I’m sorry you’re just hearing about how pollsters word questions in order to get ppl to agree with their agendas. Republicans and democrats do it.
and everyone knows primary exit polls don’t reflect the general electorate.
The poll I quoted is from KFF. What's their agenda? They claim to be non-partisan.
It’s also clear that you have an agenda.
why is being on the opposite end of your idea when it’s 50/50 according to u an agenda?
Why would it be eliminated?theres still private insurance in the uk
That's not why I'm saying you have an agenda. I'm thinking about pasts posts/threads you made like this one: https://www.thecoli.com/threads/uni...-live-or-die-with-out-the-coronavirus.766748/
It's clear and obvious.
