MODERATORS
I mean, you’re defending polling that hasn’t been great for the least few elections and has meant almost nothing except for Trump winning the republican primary (obviously).
I saw several polls saying that issue 1 in Ohio would barely pass. Definitely didn’t have polls predicting big dem wins this November either.
While I completely agree that people need to get active now and beat down the apathy, focusing on flawed data and developing a defeatist attitude probably isn't good for the soul.
The beatings will continue until morale improves.
Or maybe politicians should actually do shit for younger people to make them want to vote for them instead of spitting in their face and assuming they will get their vote because the other guy is worse.
