2024 US Presidential Election

Four prominent Democrats would perform significantly better than President Biden in key swing states if they replaced him as the party’s presumptive nominee, according to a memo from a Democratic-funded polling group.

The BlueLabs draft memo, first acquired by Politico, found that “nearly every tested Democrat performs better than the President” in the swing states of Wisconsin, Michigan, Nevada, Arizona, Georgia, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.

The memo singled out four Democrats who bested Biden’s results by roughly 5 points overall across the battleground states: Sen. Mark Kelly (Ariz.), Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.

Vice President Harris also outperformed Biden in polling but by a smaller margin than the top four, according to the memo.

Polling also found that about 3 percent of Trump voters would back an alternative Democrat if Biden steps aside, and about 1 percent of Biden voters would switch to Trump if the president is no longer on the ticket.

Overall, the memo said Trump leads the presidential race “comfortably” as of now.

If there's a decision to be made, they better pull the trigger soon.

Interesting choice of words.

The ear bandages are false support of Trump. True believers in the orange messiah would show their support by shooting themselves in the ear.

Good idea. We should encourage it. Maybe some of them will accidently shoot themselves in the head.

The people in the body modification industry are probably going to be busy creasing ears now. Or tattoo artists will be busy inking streaks of "blood".

Look - a new job created!

You may get your wish.

It's not playing nice with my computer, but I get the gist. I'm not sure I wish Biden to drop out, but I confess that whether he drops out or stays in, the odds look longer from a practical standpoint.

Vote this November. Excuses to not vote against Donald Trump and and his fascist agenda fall completely flat in the face of the threat.

No, I won't.

Well not unless the current government dissolve the Dáil with a view to having a November election.

From now on, every time I hear some Reublican yokel bragging that they're "the party of Lincoln," I'm going to remind them that they're also the party of Nixon! And, Trump's way, way, wayyyyyy more Nixon than Lincoln!

They haven't been the party of Lincoln since at least Teddy left the party.
