Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Pretty dramatic headline for a 50/50 poll and a fundraising email.
I have an old phone number that used to be owned by a conservative I know. I have been getting these over the top "IT'S ALL OVER AND YOU HAVEN'T HELPED, 5X MATCH NOW!!!!" texts pretty much every day of every election cycle for years now.
Telling followers that the world is ending unless you ~~give them your money~~ donate to the campaign seems to be just the way they fundraise these days.
To be fair, I get emails from Nancy Pelosi literally every day about Trump and asking for donations. I'm not sure why I haven't unsubscribed....that shit is annoying.
you'll just get subscribed to other campaigns all the time anyway because those motherfuckers share/sell your information to each other.
Seriously. Never give ANY politician your email if you don't want a flood of emails asking for donations.
I get solicitations from the DNC all the time. I got one the other day talking about how MA needs money to fight extremism there. Im trying to think where extremism is taking root in MA outside of shitholes like Billerica (pronounced Bill-rica because they're trash).
Their base is addicted to fear.
Yeah, I think that's to be expected from a site with that slant
A politician asking people to donate and vote for them? This is sooooo desperate.
Don't show up of you liked them, it's already done and over with. There's nothing that can be done.
FUCKING THANK YOU!
What a nothing burger of an article.
The wording is a little strange but it seems like that's the voters who belong to a party and that he has a 17 point lead with independents. Wish they'd just have simple bar graphs or something when they talk poll numbers....
