59% of Americans say they are better off financially than they were a year ago, the highest level in the history of Gallup polling. Gallup has never recorded this level in over 40 years - even the dot com boom was 58%. Even 60% of *Democrats* agree. This is how Trump wins reelection in November.

It's anybody believing this poll? 59% are better off?

Better than the 90's when the weren't enough employees to even hire?

This one day after Gallup forgot to take exit polls in Iowa?

This is bogus.

You want citations for 2020 exit polling sources that don't exist?

Booya!

Bonus:

Citation of your nascent request(s) for Saidit user info.

Sigh...

Dealing with conspiracy theorists, I swear...

No I'm not asking for the exit polls that don't exist. Obviously not, but I'm glad that you made that logical leap. Your kind is really good at that. I mean a source that says Gallup didn't conduct exit polls. Jesus, man.

I won't fault you for not understanding that it's impossible to prove a negative argument. I also can't prove the Easter Bunny doesn't exist. It doesn't, in case you didn't know.

In any case, I'm a badass so here you go (2016).

IMO it's an early indicator that we should expect overt election fraud in the future.

Your turn: Please explain why a pedo-hoaxing shill like yourself would be requesting information about site traffic?

What is the ratio of lurkers (no account), inactive users (have an account but hardly use it to post), and active users on Saidit?

Dude. You've got problems.

Even though something might not happen, there can still be a news story about it. Not doing exit polling would seem to be newsworthy.

I'm not going to answer any of your questions because you'll just use it to harass me even more than you already do.

Dude. You've got problems.

If your referring to my opposition to propaganda and shilling, then we're in agreement.

Even though something might not happen, there can still be a news story about it. Not doing exit polling would seem to be newsworthy.

It seems you conveniently overlooked my "badass" link which in fact proved a negative argument (which is understood to be impossible).

I'm not going to answer any of your questions because you'll just use it to harass me even more than you already do.

I knew you wouldn't, because you're a confirmed shill. Additionally, you regularly post divisive crap that's clearly intended to create conflict. Many of the regulars are on to your bullshit.

Your link is from 2016.

Yeah, I realize now that among a bunch of conspiracy theorists, you're naturally going to see conspiracies everywhere and leap to conclusions. Although this website is like a second home to you I'm sure with friend-substitutes, it's just one of many I use. I'm not telling you the others lest you follow and harass me there, too.

Right. Because that's when they stated that they were no longer going to invest in american political polling.

This attempt to misrepresent the facts is an amateur shill tactic. As expected.
