ABC/Washington Post Poll: Trump 51, Biden 47 Among Likely Florida Voters

If those are the reported numbers,
the real numbers are Trump 65
Biden 33. You have to know how
to read these things.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

I mentioned that, in the In The News Today thread

Rather than restate everything, I will just summarize: it is a good thing for people who would prefer to vote for someone who isn't a democrat or a republican.

If I ever said anything this dumb, the righties on this board would never let me live it down. EB makes these bold proclamations all the time and everyone just “mehs” as if it’s not embarrassing nonsense.

Many of us believe certain posters have no credibility therefore we don't even bother.. In my opinion it is most of the posters in any political discussion.

You are speaking in hyperbole. Even Reagan didn't have a 22% lead in Florida

Democrat - Republican
47.82% – 49.02% 2016 REP
50.01% – 49.13% 2012 DEM
51.03% – 48.22% 2008 DEM
47.09% – 52.10% 2004 REP
48.84% – 48.85% 2000 REP
48.02% – 42.32% 1996 DEM
39.00% – 40.89% 1992 (19.82% Perot) REP
...
34.66% – 65.32% 1984 REP
38.50% – 55.52% 1980 REP
51.93% – 46.64% 1976 DEM
