I assumed nothing different. Party politics amirite. No, the attack is horrible. Was it political? Has that been determined? My comments are about Republican gun control opinions. Not the attack itself. But......you know that. 2 Link to comment

I assumed nothing different. Party politics amirite. I'm just curious. Have you always been a Republican? I'm just asking, because most of the active people in these threads have been back and forth and/or are Independents. I just think it's funny when people relentlessly loyal to one party complain about party politics. Edit: this board has changed A LOT in the past 6 years. It's not because people don't believe in fiscal conservatism, or local governments. I really feel it is because the GOP that many of us used to be comfortable with, and would argue FOR in many cases has been hi-jacked. And its frustrating that many seem to be okay with it. 1 3 Link to comment

So who knows how accurate it is... I'm not sure about that. How do they poll people who voted early? Before elections, there are polls that are known to be questionable. After the election, everyone looks at these stats as facts as to what happened. Like, these are more accurate than pre election polls. Link to comment

Before elections, there are polls that are known to be questionable. After the election, everyone looks at these stats as facts as to what happened. Like, these are more accurate than pre election polls. Lets say a research place calls 200 people. Question #1: What is your age? Question #2: Did you vote early? Question #3: Did you primarily vote Dem or GOP? 200 people answer "18-29" to #1 100 people answer "yes" to #2 72 people answer "Dem" to #3 I'm not a statistician, but it wouldn't be hard to make a claim from the data. Even if it ends up being wildly inaccurate. Link to comment
