Don't Fall For It: Shoddy Polling Again Pushing Doom And Gloom For Dems
It's the "red wave" all over again
Recent polls have Democrats and Never-Trumpers alarmed about Biden's 2024 re-election prospects. Biden's approval numbers and head-to-head match ups with Trump give the picture of an unpopular Democratic President that is drifting towards electoral disaster.
Current polls have Biden at a 39% approval rating and Biden and Trump tied to win the presidency, with
some polls even having Trump ahead of Biden.
But a closer look at the polls and the methods behind them underscores both why no one should be panicking at this point, and how polls are routinely weaponized to discourage pro-democracy voters.
