    Last fall, the politics subreddit was FILLED with idiots who claimed that the polls were fake, that the news was rigged, and that Kamala was really leading by 15 points.

    I know that’s not directly relevant, but I’m just sick of people trying to pretend that things aren’t as bad as they are.

      And I kept running the numbers showing Biden was losing, and how Harris started strong but watched her lead evaporate.

      Was downvoted every time and told “The only poll that matters is election day!”

      I repeatedly pointed out, the reason you track polling over time is to see where the support was heading and her support was disintegrating.
