A Deep Dive Into the Democrats' Latest Polling: There’s a Rebellion Brewing

EXCERPT:
Of those aforementioned stories, one of them included brand-spanking-new polling data of Democratic voters. (Keep that part in mind: These weren’t undecided, randomly selected voters; they were dedicated Democrats.) Additionally, this story is less than 24 hours old, so it’s probably the most current data of Democrats available.

Let’s take a peek under the hood, shall we?

The first question grabbed the lion’s share of the media coverage because it pertains to the presidential horserace: Do you agree or disagree with the statement, “The process the Democratic Party used to select its nominee for President did not yield the strongest candidate.”

Remarkably, 58% of Democrats(!) agreed — and if you’re a Lefty, that’s a terrifying harbinger of buyer's remorse, electoral defeat, and a looming MAGA victory.

But here’s where things take a turn: The next two questions weren’t about Trump or the horserace — they were all about the relationship between Democrats… and their own party.

When asked, “The process the Democratic Party used to select Kamala Harris was undemocratic,” 52% agreed, a slim majority. Eleven percent were unsure.

But since 11% of the Democrats were unsure, that means only 38% disagreed!


In today’s pop-culture parlance, “democratic” is a euphemism for “fair.” When normal people speak, “democratic elections” means “fair elections.” Therefore… we’re two weeks from Election Day, and only 38% of Democrats believe their own nominating process was fair!

This is beyond shocking. It’s unprecedented.

The last question asked Democrats to agree or disagree with the following: “I lost significant faith in the Democratic Party because it did not disclose Biden’s health issues during the primary process.”

My ears perked at the statement’s wording: “Faith” was an interesting choice. It’s usually linked to our hopes, beliefs, and aspirations. “Significant” is another interesting word. It usually refers to a quantity beyond the tipping point. And the statement itself was about honesty.

Here, another narrow majority — 54% — agreed. Eight percent were unsure.

Which means only 38% of Democrats still believe their own party is honest!

Are you starting to connect the dots?
