Kamala Harris won politicaly engaged voters, but lost voters who don't follow politics.
The final NBC News poll showed Vice President Kamala Harris losing voters who don’t follow politics closely by double digits.
You're viewing a single thread.
Sounds like they are trying to shift blame, again. We knew exactly who she was and knew she can't be trusted with our support.
Shifting blame by... checks notes... analyzing the demographics of voters.
How are they analyzing the demographics of non voters at exit polls when non voters wouldn't be exiting the polls to be questioned?
Which non voters are you talking about? The article is about politically engaged voters and voters who don't follow politics, both of which are voters.
yes. thats there point.. the voters are not why harris lost.
knew she can't be trusted with our support
Ah so you ARE a Trump supporter. Got it.
Life must be so easy being binary and thinking, critique of one does not imply support of the other. Your party ran a piece of shit right-wing blue fascist who openly welcomed war criminals and you guys thought it was okay. We did not
party ran a piece of shit right-wing blue fascist
LMAO Just more projection from a MAGA Trump supporter
classic blue maga behavior - any structural critique must be met with tribal-style ad hom: "yeah well you probably just support kang instead of kodos."
blue maga
So cringe
I agree
Critique was due in any other election year without an actual literal fascist on the Republican ticket.
bLuEMaGA screechers=Projections from Trump supporters
This attitude perpetuates the Democratic ticket running terrible candidates who can't inspire either voters or potential voters. You can settle for a poop sandwich on rye rather than a poop sandwich on John Deerst but some would prefer something actually nourishing.
Like I said, binary thinking
Hate to break it to you, but the US elections ARE binary for as long as FPTP is the voting system nationwide. You want real change? advocate for things like RCV. I wouldn't even vote for the DNC IF RCV was nationwide and third-parties actually stood a chance, I'm just being realistic.
As things stand now, you're just demanding a fantasy. A pursuit that will now have blood on its hands because now instead of a "not really a fascist, just not as left as id like" president we have a full throat legit fascist.
The 2024 US presidential election was a binary choice, because that's how it works with first past the goalposts elections.
If you voted 3rd party, you voted for Trump.
Why do you guys pretend to understand the electoral college in one breath and in the other assume every critic of the Democratic party lives in NC, GA, PA, MI, etc.?
My vote would have literally been more wasted voting for Kamala in a deep red state. At least a third party vote could get your party to notice something.
The vast majority of Americans do not live in swing states.
It's an ML that doesn't understand how elections work...or they are the CCP ops....one of the two.
"Corporate wants you to find the difference between these two pictures"
Donald Trump
Third party candidates
"They're literally the same thing!!"
Third-party candidates?
Oh, you mean the ones who have never won a presidential election in the entire modern history of the US and has become nothing but pawns for the 2 established parties to harm the other e.g. Jill Stein, Russian asset?
Those third-party candidates?
"A non-vote or vote for a third-party is a vote for Trump"
So congrats MAGAt, your guy won!
We also knew exactly who Trump is. We have a very long history.
I particularly love stuff about him before he was in politics, like the Motley Fool podcast on how he duped public investors for his private company through pumping up real estate values. They went to his office, saw this weird array of gaudy decoration and oddly attractive employees, sat down with him, and saw through his lie. Then made the only short in their firm's entire history... and it paid off.
There's no excuse of bias. You can't blame any politicians. It's just him. And while not perfect by any means, you have to squint hard to see Kamala in the same light.
Why is the default argument from liberals always 'but Trump?' Harris would have been a shit candidate not worthy of being elected regardless of who her opponent was.
Harris was going to raise taxes on billionaires and corporations. Why the fuck would you NOT vote for that?
That doesn't matter. She was the only other option we had
Why was she the only other option? Is there something wrong with how we count our votes that artificially restricts the number of viable political parties?
Yes, our electoral system guarantees only 2 parties are viable. Whether that's good or not is irrelevant, because it's the system that was in place for this election.
She was forced as the only choice on voters and liberals find that acceptable
Fucking child. Grow up.
It doesn't matter. She was the choice we had.
Because she wouldn't have been shit. Your argument is invalid.
How is reporting what PEOPLE filled out in exit polls, shifting blame? These are just facts.
You have to understand, the people who constantly attacked Harris before the election now have to figure out some way to make her just as bad as Trump, to excuse their own behavior. Is it disgusting? Yes. Is it reprehensible? Yes. Is it absolutely predictable as a means of trying to escape responsibility for the rancid shit hurricane that will be Trump Part 2? Yes.
Yeah I've been seeing the exact same thing, and I think it will be interesting to see them gradually unravel in the coming months.
You can see that all of the astroturfing, bot accounts vanished after Election Day, and all of the useful idiots are left to try to fight the cognitive dissonance they're feeling after seeing the immediate insanity of Trump since winning.
Unfortunately, if they actually are progressives, they will likely have a much harder time ignoring the cognitive dissonance than conservatives (who seem to excel at that ability). They're in for some real psychic pain when they witness Trump's actions in Palestine.
"those leftist rubes not voting for my party, well jokes on them cause I just imagined the other guys doing worse"
I'm not looking forward to Trump, but this is the path the Democrats paved by their own actions. Blaming the voters is not a real strategy for anything other than nursing bruised ego.
Whatever you have to tell yourself to sleep at night.
I'm not the one debasing myself for the genocide party (D).
And how are they polling these non-voters at exit polls if they did not vote? Odd dog. The story is blame shifting bullshit, what Democrats love doing whenever they can't manage to run a decent candidate or election
