I'll add this in...
President Donald Trump is almost certain to win reelection in 2020, according to a political science professor whose “Primary Model” has correctly predicted five out of six elections since 1996.
“The Primary Model gives Trump a 91 percent chance of winning in November,” Stony Brook Professor Helmut Norpoth told Mediaite Tuesday. He noted that his model, which he introduced in 1996, would have correctly predicted the outcome of all but two presidential elections in the last 108 years: “This model gets it right for 25 of the 27 elections since 1912, when primaries were introduced.”

New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

Apparently he is anything but transparent about his model which makes me more than a tad suspicious...

Based on the number of Trump signs, I'd say it better than the polls indicate.


Ask not what your country can do FOR you; ask what they are about to do TO YOU!!

What I’m saying is that if you are in a Republican area then I really don’t much care how many signs you see. In a competitive or Democratic leaning area it would be different. I was out in the hinterlands between Howell and Grand Rapids (Stay entirely South OT Lansing on the back roads) Trump signs everywhere but that’s not shocking or indicative of statewide support.

I predict that this election, more than any other in recent history is going to be about getting your base out to vote and who is motivated enough to go to a polling place. Especially if the Covid-19 problem sticks with us through November. Polls on registered voters won't be close to being accurate. Do a poll on dedicated voters and you might be closer to the truth.

If you have a Trump sign in your yard, most likely, you're a dedicated voter. How many Biden signs are we seeing anywhere?

I've seen 3 Biden signs in Northern Michigan and 2 in Ann Arbor.


Voting for Trump is dumber than playing Russian Roulette with fully loaded chambers.

Likely voter polls seem to narrow the gap by a point or maybe 2. It doesn’t seem to make THAT much of a difference and we are seeing more likely voter polls now...

The Trump signs have been out for awhile (he started running the day he was sworn in)... I imagine when Biden picks a running mate and gets those signs printed they’ll be popping up more. You can also have a small but dedicated base that 80% of them want and have a sign to put out front.

Ever notice when you're looking for, or have just purchased a new car that you see a large amount of commercials for that item or that there are a whole bunch of them on the road? Same thing with your Trump signs. It doesn't mean a thing.
