Small thing, but I hate this framing. You don’t call a race based on polling, this just further muddies the water on what polling is supposed to do which is exactly how you’ve interpreted it, give you insights about trends as the election develops.
Only Democrats could be so bad at politics that somebody getting cleared is still written up as a loss. What a bunch of chuckleheads - if only the alternative wasn’t the end of democracy.
I mean, the Suburban vote moved substantially Democrat in 2020 and contributed to Biden’s victory. So it also makes sense for Democrats to seek their votes.

THANK YOU! This was amazing, it even talks about this passage and the fact that Melville knew it was bunk from the reference. That’s amazing (side note: imagine tracking down old reference materials as a profession. What a calling).
Love this. Very curious if this is a real quotation or if even Melville was like, “this strains credulity, even for Ishmael, I better pretend it comes from a reference.” 🐋
