where's 11

Agreed. Imagine posting that tweet and completely forgetting about 11, oof.

I guess I get it, but to “normie” people who aren’t Internet poisoned about politics, 11 isn’t even on their radar.

I think that's just shabby journalism tbh. Anyone who did a 5 minute google about this would for sure know about 11, likely 12 as well. But with the way things've been going, I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Ok but like, to some extent journalism has to represent the things voters care about, and neither of those integers are top of mind for the broader electorate

Yeah but journalistic media also has the duty to inform and educate the public on important but lesser-known issues, just as much as it does on things that are popular. Of course, the numbers from 30 to 39 are especially "in vogue" right now. But the low tenners are what might turn this boat around.

That's Numberwang!

Might as well have 69 on there

Big if true

Gotta look at the crosstabs tho

Where the fuck is 42, Jon????? 42 is EVERYTHING.

Shhhh! That's classified.

73.6% of all statistics are made up.

The margin for error on the 77% is laughable. I laugh at it.

There’s no way it’s 33%

Is that scorigami

That's numberwang

i just hope I can stay awake long enough to see 22 tbh

Motivated reasoning, disinformation, *and* confirmation bias! Shameful.

and don’t forget the most important number of all: you, the fans!

hopefully after tonight we'll see some shifts in this data

Here some more interesting numbers: 69% 420% 8008135% 2%

Let’s look at the polls right now: [EXTREMELY LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER]

No surprises there

I need more to make sense of these numbers

Got any amounts of money in this debate?

That's numberwang

Jon's got his khakis on

very cool jon can we see these cut by user segment? really think there’s an opportunity to show some impact here.

Nerd

58% of men and women but only 26% of independents

Intolerance

Labeled by Bluesky Moderation Service

Shocking.

Steel 186, Anaconda 74, American Can 138...

Those certainly are some of the numbers of all time.

I told you

The number you should know heading into this debate is 11, because it's a relatively low number and if you haven't heard of it I'm not sure you'll follow what's going on

That's right Jon

That's a plus-13 on all caps, we know how this ends

You made that shit up!

What is this, a baseball broadcast?

24 is the highest number and that's it! Let it go!

Imagine thinking any of this matters this far out, get real. Unskew these numbers!
