2020 Democratic Primary Thread: Focus on House & Senate races

[King Kreole]

nope. just further attempts at gas lighting from the centrist scum hive. bernie's support is strong, bernie's ground game is powerful, bernie's war chest is yuge, and Bernie Sanders is going to be the next president of the united states of America.

funny how the only candidate you hate on is the only jewish one.

i'm not saying you're antisemitic.

but if this pattern continues, what else can we conclude?

How is it a conspiracy to question the accuracy of polls? They have been wrong a lot recently. AOC wasn't supposed to beat Crowley according to the polls. Trump wasn't supposed to beat the entire Republican presidential field or Hillary Clinton in 2016. They may be the best thing we have to predict the future but they are in no way reliable.

I don't give much of a shyt about polls for the reasons you mentioned, but Bernie's team is trying to have it both ways. They're not making an argument against polls, they're using specious, easily countered claims to try and invalidate polls that they don't like. Either ignore them or live and die by them, this both ways shyt makes them look hypocritical and desperate.

dog, you know all polls aren't the same


in fact i explained some of the poll fukkery going on and your response was ""

oh, so the ONLY campaign you're accusing of being duplicitous JUST HAPPENS to be the only one for a jewish candidate

yeah. okay. i think we're done here. the writing's on the wall. you're an antisandersite.

not to be negative, but it kills me that we don't see the next rising star of the democratic party in 2020. i think we might get one in 2024, maybe 2028, but im not too hopeful about 2020

ive come to realize that the worst ether we can deal this piece of shyt is losing badly in front of the entire world in 2020. fukk mueller, fukk russia, fukk impeachment, fukk all of that shyt. a massive electoral L would be more satisfying than any of it, and more devastating to trump and his base. their might be a little violence, but we would get past it

but im hanging my hat on joe fukkin biden right now

What happen with sanders?

I thought he would win for sure.

it looks like biden or warren at this point to me. biden is polling for a reason, and warren is doing bernies policys better than him

I just find it odd that you're accusing notable jewish political commentator Nate Silver of being shifty and deceitful when he accurately exposed Sirota for pushing an obviously false "Sanders surge" and Faiz for pushing a dumb overpolling narrative

Possible Biden and warren for vice?

:jaypatr: i dont see what purpose she really serves on the ticket

frankly, id like to see senate majority leader elizabeth warren i think she's better for the country there. if i was really convinced she would beat trump, i'd be all in, but i just dont see it

then again, maybe she would

Why are the claims specious? And if you are talking about Silver talking about 'young people are hard to reach', that's weak on his part as a counter. The majority of marketing is targeting young people, advertisers seem to be able to find out what they want/like. Pollsters should be able to do the same.

they gay mayor will get the nod at the end... he has money and power backing him... keep saying the dem can't count on the black vote any more, so they going after the LGBT vote.
i mean they tried to roll out corey and kamala, b.u..t black folks finally waking up to the bs, and read and smelled their bullshyt a mile away

Silver didn't just say "young people are hard to reach" though, he also said pollsters end up upweighting the younger voters due to the fact younger generations don't respond to polls as much as older generations. Faiz is acting like pollsters do that is the specious part.

I didn't expect Sanders supporters to be attacking Warren so viciously

They attacked Clinton. Why wouldn’t they attack whoever wins?

It is specious, it's not actual data. It's a calculation based on an estimation. How much and how often they 'upweigh' is based on what? They don't have enough actual young people data, right? Polling more actual young people is the solution, it can be done but for some strange reason they are choosing not to.
