(12,278 posts)And have been since W. But once in awhile, the voters overwhelm the cheating.
Trump stole the election in 2016 by using Putin's troll farms, Russian tax dollars and rigging social media sites. Then he cheated again in 2024 using the computerized vote counts on all the swing states. Musk helped with that thru buying Twitter and rigging counts.
It's much more difficult for each individual Republicon to rig each of their state's vote counts. Though the GOP tries anyway. Trump is not funding the rigging in each and every state election. It's easier to just rig one nationwide election. The rigged opinion polls are then used as cover for the rigged vote counts. But the rigged opinion polls in states are useless because of the difficulty of rigging each and every state's voting systems.
So yeah, the polls are useless at the state level because GOP pollsters are still overweighting GOP opinions but the actual vote count is Not rigged to reflect the pollster's bias like they are in nationwide votes.
