A six-month survey of battleground “swing voters,” those who chose Barack Obama in 2012, then President Trump in 2016, has found that most not only plan to stick with the Republican but expect him to be reelected by a wide margin.
Overall, the survey said that 68% of swing voters polled in Minnesota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin are voting for Trump. They believe that he has done a good job with the economy and is “working hard” to end the coronavirus crisis. The “Swing Voter Project” from Engagious, a partner in the “Back to Normal Barometer” often featured in Secrets, and the Schlesinger Group found

This is a good sign. I'd like even more support from the swingers. But, this is a good start.

It's common sense. Apparently, there are still some people left in this country who have some! Imagine that! They sure don't have a "D" behind their name!

Common sense will tell you that no politician in any country outside Communist China is responsible for the spread of the very contagious Chinese COVID-19 virus into their countries, and no politician anyplace in the world is going to get that virus under control, in the USA that especially relates to Joseph Biden who clearly has age related declining cognitive abilities that are clear for everyone to see with their lying eyes. Biden’s Democrat handlers try to hide Biden’s inability to clearly speak more than a couple of sentences by relying on Biden using electronic devices like monitors and telepromptors that they locate off screen when Biden speaks, in ways that they hope the general public will not notice. The only entities that may have the ability to bring the virus are involved in advanced medical science and only after much experimentation and study will they come up with effective therapeutics and a vaccine. Remember the virus was unknown in the USA and the greater world outside China until about January or February this year, with only limited data and information becoming available until months afterwords, so politicians, including President Trump who were running countries around the world, had to make decisions based upon information given to them by medical scientists back during those months and up to today. The Democrats and Biden have politicized the virus pandemic by Monday morning quarterbacking decisions made by Trump back to the start of the pandemic, and are putting down the safety of any vaccine developed during the Trump Administration time in office, along with hinting to low information voters that Biden, once elected, will come up with a magic cure for the virus. Common sense will tell you that is not going to happen, and by dwelling on the pandemic, and especially face masks daily, that Biden and the Democrats are trying to obscure the very unpopular socialist political agenda that they will attempt to implement throughout the USA if Biden is elected.

Yesterday at his Town Hall meeting, Joe Biden admitted that the feds have no authority to control our behavior regarding COVID-19 except with regard to real property owned (or controlled by leases, etc.) by the U.S. Government. He referred to federal office buildings, court houses, and parks.

Because they have common sense. An attribute that is pretty consistent for Trump voters.

I don't blame the President at all. I blame the Chinese (aka Joe Biden's employers.)

I also saw a poll where 60% were concerned about Biden's age. This does not spell a Biden win or landslide to me

If you watched the covid task force presentations, you knew what was happening daily. If you also watched the news and read articles, you knew what the Dems were doing and weren't doing and how they had to rely on the Federal government to bail them out. If you watched FOX, you saw the many events the President held, including celebrating truckers for being a major part of keeping merchandise and produce moving across the country at no small risk to themselves. He celebrated manufacturers who "stepped up to the plate" in retrofitting machinery in order to make ppe and other necessary items, including hand sanitizer!
Not everyone watches Fox, not very many people actually read anything other than local papers which carry the AP, Reuters and the like. I know up here in NH the local paper (including Maine, not to mention MA) has no independent journalists. Now the editorial pages have gone liberal, a hairsbreadth from the Left. sad.
So if that's all you see and read, you simply will not have the whole truth and nothing close to truth, biased, distorted, omitted important facts, inserted opinions not favorable to Republicans, let alone Conservatives. If you ask your liberal/Dem/Left friend about certain important events or issues not of interest or importance to them, they will not have a clue. So we are dealing with a lot of ignorance. Knowledge or even curiosity are the remedies, but they just don't really care.

I don't get the whole blame Trump thing with the Chinese virus. Do they really think this strategy is or will work with most people? What exactly did Trump do or not do that the demosluts would have differently? They never say, because they've got nothing. The blame Trump people apparently have short term memory problems, and their brains can't transfer short term information to long term memory. The democlown party just keeps repeating the lie hoping people think it's the truth.

When the Biden COVID Plan is explained, it turns out to be a plagiarized copy of the Trump Administration Plan, with one difference, Biden at first was going to implement his plan on a national level, instead of through the State Governors as Trump did, but after being told that would not be constitutional, Biden’s Plan became unclear and has remained so until today, everyday Biden says wear a face mask and social distance yourself from others. So you have to figure that is the Biden Plan!

This is a good sign. If I weren’t so worried about ballot harvesting and cheating in my state, I’d guarantee Trump would carry it. Our morning paper told of people getting 5 mail in ballots when only 2 people live there. Regardless, the Trumps are still campaigning here, so they must think they can win.
