Informal Harris-Trump voter poll

How many Democrats do you personally know who are voting for Trump?

How many Republicans do you personally know who are not supporting Trump?

I’m not on social media and run in small circles, but I don’t know any Dems supporting Trump. I do know 2 Republicans who voted for Trump in 2016 and 2020 who are not voting for him this time.

6. There is no doubt but that they will try to ambush her.

With some sort of personal charge to try and tear her down. They will not focus so much on the issues she has espoused, in my opinion.

7. I am extremely isolated, so have no personal stories... but a recent poll I read about
Mon Oct 14, 2024, 08:56 PM
Oct 14

said that 96 percent of Democrats are supporting Kamala Harris---
but only 89 percent of Republicans are supporting DonOLD Trump....

(sorry, can't cite the poll, just one article about one poll that I read on my phone app)



(and why does software underline "Kamala" as a miss-spelled word???? GRRRRRR. Damned irritating)


We are going to win this election--- thanks to black women, young women, and some older white guys like me!!!


Kamala is ON FIRE in this rally I am watching....

Have to say, she is much better 'on the stump' than Hillary was,
but Hillary 'normalized' having a woman as the presidential nominee of a major political party--
so that Kamala's sex is almost an afterthought today--

and her campaigns for Arizona and Georgia, which may have been an unwise allocation of resources in 2016,
helped turn those states 'purple' and helped Joe Biden WIN them in 2020,
and keep them 'in play' in 2024!

I found out in this last week that a couple of the Republicans I know from church who I thought for sure were Trumpies are actually voting for Harris, and are expressing their disappointment and disgust with Trump to their friends on social media.

As far as on my social media, I count 5 Republicans not voting, 3 voting Harris, and 6 voting Trump. I didn't ask, I just used the info they've posted. There are surprisingly a lot of other social media contacts I have who I know are Republican who have been unusually non-political this time around.
