swing voters and undecided voters basically by definition think about and engage with politics differently than anyone on this site, anyone who writes for the ny times, and the vast majority of the times’ subscribers. otherwise they wouldn’t be undecided/swing voters.

Hard to be "undecided " after seeing 2025 Project. You have to be braindead or rich enough to put tax break ABOVE democracy

Given the last eight years, I question how anyone can be "undecided."

This is what I’ve been saying, and one response I get is, swing voters aside, what about how this affects enthusiasm and thus turnout? But to my (non-expert) mind, Dem enthusiasm/turnout in this election will be largely driven by anti-Trump feeling no matter the candidate

You've got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West. You know… morons.

As a 24 year old trying to find a career I became very excited about politics circa Bernie 2015. I think the currently irreconcilable disconnect between policy positions, messaging outcomes, and voter opinion, has never been dealt with, and we are fucked until we get some sort of handle on it all…

I feel like a lot of politics nerds have never done much canvassing, as it tends to teach you pretty quickly that voters are an amazingly messy, complex, weird bunch. I remember @chrislhayes.bsky.social saying something about how it taught him how polling tidies people into nice tidy boxes.

my dental hygienist reports that her boyfriend made her watch the debate, she was unimpressed by either candidate, is very worried about abortion, and to express her displeasure might vote 3rd party

This is why I laugh at anyone in politics who calls themselves a centrist. If you are a political journalist or a politician you can not be representative of the center. The center in US politics isn’t paying attention to the election yet. The center wouldn’t consider running for office.
