    All the polls coming out past few months and how Trump is winning, and Democrats will get crushed in November 2024. I don’t believe in polls regardless of which side is winning. Since 2004 polling has been inaccurate most of the election.

    2016 in RCP average Clinton was winning by 3.2%, we know how that went. In 2012 RCP average was Obama winning by 0.7% but the actual result was Obama won by 3.9%.

    But today no more polls , actual election day in some key state


    Kentucky


    Voters in Kentucky will decide whether to give a second term to Gov. Andy Beshear, a Democrat running in a heavily Republican state.


    Ohio constitutional amendment on abortion

    Ohio voters will decide whether to amend the state Constitution to protect access to abortion services.



    Virginia General Assembly

    Control of both chambers of Virginia’s state legislature is up for grabs, with Republicans holding a narrow majority in the state House and Democrats leading the state Senate. Either or both chambers could flip and possibly give Republicans full control of state government. That would clear the way for Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin to implement a ban on abortions after 15 weeks with exceptions for rape, incest and when the mother’s life is endangered. Democratic candidates have campaigned heavily on the issue.


    Pennsylvania Supreme Court

    Republican Carolyn Carluccio and Democrat Daniel McCaffery are the nominees to fill a vacant state Supreme Court seat that could play a significant role on voting-related cases during the 2024 presidential campaign.



    Let’s see how America vote in some swing state.

    Beshear wins fairly easily-the GOP won all the other state wide races easily
    Ohio passes both 1 (pro abortion) and 2-legalization of weed. In both cases, the pro sides outspent the anti side 3 or 4 to one. I didn't see a single ad one way or the other on issue 2 but the Pro One ads were more effective and hammered banning rape in the case of abortion which is a very good attack on the Ohio anti abortion law

    Trump again worked his magic, this time for the Republican gubernatorial candidate in Kentucky, demonstrating that he has not ended his amazing streak of 2020 and 2022:

    Authoritarianism was rejected and personal freedom upheld in yet another red state, Ohio.

    I think most unpredictable result was Virginia’s legislative victory by Democrats. Even the moderate GOP governor can’t influence what to come. 15 weeks abortion ban is not where voters are.

    So many polls and bragging about polls that Trump and Republican will win in 2024. But election after election result show a different story.
