In a MeidasTouch interview, political strategist Matthew Dowd explains why early voting trends and Trump's campaign missteps could signal a Harris win.
I'm with you. I always thought democrats would win. If Biden stayed in the race It may have been closer But I have faith in the American people who see trump for what he is And once Kamala Harris harry Harris took over I believe it'll be a landslide.
It's imperative that we all adjust our sails and ignore the negative noise from the MAGAs. Love Matthew Dowd and respect his opinion substantially. How about +5 for Harris at the end on November 6th?
Media and pollsters concentrating way too much on the mythical "hidden tRump voter" - the low -propensity "bro" vote that if actually voting MAY result in a tRump "landslide" - and rather downplaying the enormous gender gap in REAL votes now being cast, where women are overwhelmingly showing up vs the male cohort. Oh, well, let them look stupid the "day after", it will be much deserved.
Are the pollsters considering the fatigue dt supporters are feeling? Those leaving the maga crowd, for the more energetic (and more exciting) Harris/Walz Campaign!! Kamala WILL win if WE ALL VOTE!!!
I am a greeter at an early voting place south of the Tampa area in Florida - I have experienced many of the Republican voters thank us (the Democrats) for being there and confess that they were voting Harris/Walz. Some were former military people - it has been quite surprising! One Republican who stopped to talk said that many are voting for Harris but they are just not talking about it. Happily hopeful.
This article points out a common mistake of the Media, by referring to the Trump/Republicans' strategy as conservative. Many conservatives have stressed Trump's strategy has nothing to do with the conservative ideology. I am disappointed in Meidas touch for this article and I am a paid subscriber.
I agree that the media consistently and incorrectly refers to Republicans as conservatives when they are radical, at the least, and frequently extremists. This mischaracterization is used by the GOP to claim most Democratic policies are radical when most recent legislation hasn't been far left of center. Look at the Biden administration accomplishments.
Was it radical to implement a long needed national infrastructure plan? No. In fact, it was genius to get it done during the pandemic while Dems the held Congress.
How about bringing high-tech chip manufacturing jobs back to America? DOH, no! tRump said he'd bring jobs back to America but, nope, he didn't. The Biden admin did. I'll stop there, though there is more.
Bottom line, Democrats have proven their policies are not radical but needed for the American people because they passed Congress with bi-partisan support and for what they're accomplishing to improve our economy for the vast majority of Americans; especially those earning less than $400,000/year.
My fear is about what I’m now reading and that is besides Trump and Johnson planning on the House electing Trump no matter what is that they plan to reduce the electoral vote. How does that happen? Is there a loophole we’re not aware of?
I believe Harris is much stronger than the incompetent pollsters and pundits suggest. She will win big!

The American people are voting "Democracy and Decency", not liberal or conservative. Love it. 🩵 Right-on!! ✊🏽
Love, democracy and decency are today’s new categories of republicans and democrats. Wisest words heard today. ❤️
The vice president will be the next President of these United States. And MAGA will want to start some mess or maybe Trump will leave the country.

This race is not close. Consider these factors:
- Women vote.
- Democratic performance in the midterm and special elections.
- Cross-over Republican voters for Harris. Name one Democrat crossing over for Trump.
- Support for Ukraine
- January 6th is still fresh
That didn’t age well.
Mellon is the MAGA.

Well said!!!!
