The popular vote is meaningless in the US and will be unless/until we get rid of the Electoral College.

The article doesn't contain a poll, it reports a demographic analysis of battleground districts (defined in the text as "House districts rated leaning Democratic, leaning Republican, or toss-up by the Cook Political Report as of Oct. 9").

Had "didn't vote" been a candidate in 2016, it would've won. HRC was an utterly dismal candidate. Harris was considered a drag on Biden's chances before he dropped out, she was another dismal candidate. Blame the DNC, both these loser candidates were their fault.

This is a strange take. Who should do the research? Or are you suggesting they shouldn't do any research? Everyone should research the candidates on their ballot & be familiar with their policies and record, otherwise how can they make an informed decision?

This year's battleground districts are also *not* more suburban than the country as a whole. Or more rural.

Instead, battleground districts are full of small cities -- like Greeley, CO, where Jen lives -- with high homeownership rates.

Jen Hernandez, and people like her, may just decide who controls Congress this year. Hernandez, 43, is Mexican-American, millennial, married, and lives in a small city in Colorado. In 2016, she voted for comedian Roseanne Barr. In 2020, she backed Biden, and in 2024 Jill Stein. 🧵
