This is what Ernst & Young has to say about Millennials vs. Gen Z.

Lemme fix that for ya'

 

[Zukkoyaki]

What does this even mean?

What we already know: Race has tightened but not enough to sweat it

 

[Plinko]

Lemme fix that for ya'

Again: I taught both groups. Your response is so far off the mark I can't even begin to describe how wrong you are.

 

[bangbang i'm a timpani]

Who the hell are Ernst and Young? Jodi Ernst?

...really?

 

[whyamihere]

What does this even mean?

That if she goes from leading in Michigan from 8 to 6 or leading in Colorado from 9 to 7, it doesn't matter.

 

[Godzilla's Left Toe]

I've been teaching high school for over a decade now. That Gen Z description is absolutely 100% correct. It's a really, really good group.

I have to disagree they might be more obnoxious then Baby Boomers.

I feel like you should get a Rubio avatar if he wins, but I don't have avatars enabled, so I wouldn't notice anyway

Slayven already wants me to change my avatar to something ridiculous if there's no landslide, so I'm afraid you missed the boat on this one.

But really...why are we treating Rubio as if he's an unstoppable juggernaut? This dude barely squeaked out a win with 49% of the vote in the 2010 wave year when democrats got obliterated nationwide.

PPP had His favorability at a whopping 30% in June, it's likely not much better now:

Rubio remains very unpopular in Florida- only 30% of voters approve of him to 49% who disapprove of the job he's doing. Among critical independent voters he's even more unpopular than he is with the electorate as a whole- a 26/55 spread.

I'd love more recent numbers, but it doesn't look like anyone's really bothered to check on how much anyone ACTUALLY likes him as a candidate since then.

if you're counting on voters to ticket split to save his ass, I just don't see it.

Hillary Clinton is massively unpopular in large parts of the country. In many situations running away from her is the right way to go. The idea that the Democrats lost in 2012 because they weren't sufficiently pro-Obama is something liberals tell themselves to feel better with very little supporting data.

It isn't so much that Dems lost for not supporting Obama. They didn't gain from not supporting him.

And the point about Obama is that favorables dont matter. The point is that if the Right screams loud enough, Dems run.

 

[sazzy]

The FBI and U.S. intelligence agencies are examining faked documents aimed at discrediting the Hillary Clinton campaign as part of a broader investigation into what U.S. officials believe has been an attempt by Russia to disrupt the presidential election, people with knowledge of the matter said.

U.S. Senator Tom Carper, a Democrat on the Senate Homeland Security Committee, has referred one of the documents to the FBI for investigation on the grounds that his name and stationery were forged to appear authentic, some of the sources who had knowledge of that discussion said.

In the letter identified as fake, Carper is quoted as writing to Clinton, “We will not let you lose this election,” a person who saw the document told Reuters.

The fake Carper letter, which was described to Reuters, is one of several documents presented to the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Department of Justice for review in recent weeks, the sources said.

Is 2 points "significant movement?" That's all I was referring to.

I think that's what they mean by "not movement that matters"

 

[BadRNG]

How much could hilldawg do if we get the Senate tho

If we get the senate then in the place of a Dark Lord, we would have a Queen! Not dark but beautiful and terrible as the Morn. TREACHEROUS AS THE SEAS! STRONGER THAN THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE EARTH! ALL SHALL LOVE HER AND DESPAIR!

If we don't then I don't know, four more years of gridlock with nothing getting done? We really need the senate. Even basic stuff like supreme court justices will be difficult to get done without it.

Gen-X are reliably Conservative voters, so which side are you on, Hombre?

 

[Iolo]

But you have an avatar!

I'm trying not to be noticed.

 

[Plinko]

I have to disagree they might be more obnoxious then Baby Boomers.

I taught hundreds of each group. Millennials were far, far more obnoxious. It isn't even a contest. Yes, they were also far more dependent and cared much, much less for others. I'm constantly shocked at how willing Gen Z is to go out of their way to help others.

I'm a Millennial, by the way.

 

[Loudninja]

Oh the irony

Right?

 

[Tall4Life]

As someone who would be Gen Z from that graphic, I definitely agree with what they concluded and I see nothing wrong with it!

What we know (so far) about HRC's final stretch before Tues:

PA
MI
OH
FL
PA (again)
NH
OH (again)
PA (again)

She's attacking almost exclusively states where there is 1) no early voting (PA/MI/NH) 2) there is early voting but it's tight (FL/OH)

No NC seems significant (and no, bedwetters, I mean in a good way)

Feels like the 538 model is designed to tighten to 50/50 by election day.

I have no idea what the model is doing but that has prolly been mentioned here already.

@Nate_Cohn

Yikes this ABC/Post electorate actually is too old and too white (not something you hear often from me)

Look at this unskewer.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

I wonder if we'll see models take early voting into account next time around.

It's pretty clear NV is a lot cause for Trump, but it's still being humored as a potential pickup by him.

Biggest single day of in-person early voting.

Mori America finds herself alone in Ted's room. The player searches through his belongings. Wait, what are these strange ciphers and envelopes addressed to the San Francisco Chronicle...?

In the Donald ending, Donald forcibly grabs Mori America's pet cat, Small Government, and refuses to give it back until she lets him kiss her.

Even with the complete lack of EV in PA, I find it excessive to visit here 3 times, there is no way she is losing this state.

It's a good thing us Gen Xers are still around. Besides having the coolest label.. (Fucking Gen X is some X-men shit!) we also are the generation fixing the Baby Boomers issues while keeping you gen Y and gen Z goofs from destroying everything.

I feel like if you showed someone RuPaul's Drag Race and the King Kunta video, you could predict their political affiliation like 90% of the time just off their reactions.

I'm mostly poking fun, but ya' know... I'm sure you taught a great group of kids, but isn't that kind of skewed by being in a classroom setting?

I mean, I'm honestly more surprised when I see a kid who isn't starring at their phone, completely oblivious to everything around them. Walking in stores, in lines, even at freakin' buffets; heads down, stumbling along, consuming social media.

I ain't seein' it.

If Rs outpaced Ds in 2012 in EV, but then Ds won Florida, does that mean more Ds than Rs vote on election day? If so, I hope our NPA voters push us ahead.

[Effect]

Even with the complete lack of EV in PA, I find it excessive to visit here 3 times, there is no way she is losing this state.

Might be to keep morale high and people motivated. Especially if the strike is still happening in Philly. I wouldn't take any chances regardless though. I don't want a chance of a close win.

My major concern is I hope the increased early vote doesn't mean a dip on election day in these early voting states. Granted when have close to half of the voting population voting before election day the numbers should be lower. Just I don't want to see a collapse of any kind on the unexpected front.
