Texas has covered for you the past two weeks. This is a cupcake game. There’s no drop off with Manning. Is this just one of those games you pass on? Just curious. FYI, I’d take the Aggies to cover. That new QB makes all the difference.
So they took a survey of 2500 people and came up with this result, must be accurate.
lol lol lol
I have personally never talked to anyone that has that view.
Good analysis... but I think you might be overlooking population growth as it relates to voter turnout, in most years.
2020 was an an outlier for a couple of reasons.... we've never sent mass ballots out to registered voters, unrequested. I strongly suspect this "allowed" a lot of people to vote who normally wouldn't be bothered to make their way to the polls, and also would have opened up the POSSIBILITY of voter fraud (but no evidence of such was ever found). The question is whether or not it makes good sense to "push" people to vote when they'd normally not be willing to go to any effort to get to the polls... I guess that depends on whether or not your party won or lost. I think it was a terrible idea.
The main thing that I saw was that Trump does an excellent job of getting people to vote... not just for him, but against him as well. And he's better at getting the "Not Trump" votes out than he is at getting the actual "Trump" votes to the polls. That's the real Trump Effect, in my mind.
But I think a combination of those two factors led to the high turnouts... combined with the ongoing pandemic/lockdowns, as well as the racial unrest that was going on in 2020.
It's kinda strange that people see "fraud" in the jump in Dem votes from 2016 to 2020, but nothing wrong with an abnormal increase in Repub votes for the same time period.
