A place for ex-pats from the Denver Post comment section (closing down in July), as well as people that want to discuss Denver Post articles in general.

Polls are always bullshit and I swear they exist solely to instill false confidence in people to reduce voter turnout.

GO VOTE.

I think if the Presidential "elections" of 2000 and 2016 are any lesson at all, it's that no one should consider anything a safe bet.

2000 is basically the template for the cons to steal elections, and if you have a razor-close election like in Florida, that's the way to do it. They wanted to do it AGAIN in 2020, by a slightly different mechanism - fake electors in several states, and then take that "result" to the way-too-conservative SCOTUS to have them decide (again) on selecting a President.
