your source simply doesn't understand the difference between weighted and unweighted values.

Still waiting for an authority to be cited.


i dunno, i feel like the nyt is a pretty solid authority on "how does the nyt do polling." but that's me.

or do you need an authority to tell you that 207 is equal to 207?

Those [NYT] surveys, however, have attracted scrutiny from an array of pollsters either due to their lack of transparency about the sampling methodology or from oversampling Democrats.

cool, let's examine these claims.

1) lack of transparency about sampling methodology.

https://www.nytimes.com/article/times-siena-poll-methodology.html

and there's literally a section at the bottom of the poll data itself called "full methodology" that describes...well, i don't wanna give it away. but it has to do with the full methodology of the polling.

2) oversampling democrats.




lol i know numbers are tough for you, but notice how they didn't oversample democrats at all. by self-reporting, they spoke to an equal number. by L2 data, they spoke to more republicans than democrats. your source simply doesn't understand the difference between weighted and unweighted values. probably because he doesn't understand nyt's methodology. lmao this is way too funny.

3) bonus claim: "Exit polls from the 2020 election may provide a benchmark for estimating the partisan affiliations of voters."

ahahahahhahhhhahahaaahahahahahaha yeah demographics never change over time, that's why we just use polling demographics from 1776 or whatever.

fam you really gotta stop taking people at their word simply because you both vote for the same party.

The chief executive of the world championship organization that banned her stated in the conference that she failed the chromosome test

right. or: some dude says she failed a test. you can change "says" to "stated" if you want, i guess. not sure what difference it makes.

is your argument really that he can't possibly be lying since he's the head of an organization? are you listening to yourself?

the chromosome test repeatedly failed to pass the genetic material as a XX chromosome.

according to some dude. holler at me if he ever provides any documentation besides "this totally really happened for real, i promise!"

i mean if you wanna simply take some dude's word for it that she totally has XY chromosomes, then sure, hold that belief. that's the level of skepticism we've all come to expect from you at this point anyway.

Now, it does seem possible that she may be genetically male and has some condition which led to her being incorrectly assigned female at birth, there is certainly some doubt about whether she should be competing with females.

fyi there is literally no evidence at all that she's anything other than biologically female besides "some russian guy said she's totally a man" after she defeated a russian boxer one time.

Maybe you should provide more support and evidence for your position that Trump is actually proposing to end elections.

i never said trump is proposing to end elections. nor does the article. nor is that anything i believe. lol you got to that interpretation of trump's remarks all on your own. interesting.

what he's very obviously saying is that he will do everything in his power to obviate the need for christians to continue to vote. because -- in his vision for america -- christian fundamentalism will become immutably embedded in all of american civics.

given that 1) he's speaking to an audience of christian jihadists, and 2) he's literally already tried to overthrow a democratically elected administration, this interpretation seems pretty reasonable.

“Christians, get out and vote, just this time,” Trump exclaimed to a cheering crowd in West Palm Beach, Fla.

“You won’t have to do it anymore. Four more years, you know what, it will be fixed, it will be fine, you won’t have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians” he added.

“I love you Christians. I’m a Christian. I love you, get out, you gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don’t have to vote again, we’ll have it fixed so good you’re not going to have to vote,” Trump said.

someone tell me more about how undemocratic the democrats are. and how crazy i am for thinking of trump as a pathetic little fascist.

instead of speaking in vague generalities, can you point to the specific laws or regulations that are being violated?

if Biden stopped looking so completely incapable of holding office

is there anything policy-wise that makes you think he's incapable of holding office? i've heard a lot about how he sounds old and tired, but i have yet to hear of anything in the realm of actual public policy that should make me think he couldn't handle the job. if anything, his presidency has been remarkably active.

it actually would've been super funny if trump had accidentally been killed by the very "assassin" he hired to pretend to assassinate him
