NYTimes/Siena - Biden+8

[Sbane]

Trump approval on the economy:
Approve 54%, Disapprove 42%

How responsible do you think Donald Trump is for the recession?
Not at all+not very responsible 43%, Mainly+somewhat responsible 55%

~10% of people think Trump caused a recession and they approve of that?

Maybe they hold him responsible for current economic conditions because he let the coronavirus spready freely, yet they feel he is the one to get the economy back on track again.

Trump's approval is pretty good here, especially on the economy (54-42). Worrying sign for Biden.

Except, you know, he’s still down by 8.

Christ your bedwetting/concern trolling is beyond old.

Just f—king stop already.

Which still doesn’t make any sense, but whatever as long as he’s losing. And as I’ve said a million times, even before COVID, he was losing despite the economy.

I was polled in this poll.

Congrats! How was it?

Fairly basic like most all polls except they ask permission for the Times to call you if they want comments from voters.

So I hate how this was reported:

The Abortion question broke down:

Always Legal 31%
Mostly Legal 29%
Mostly Illegal 19%
Always Illegal 14%
Not sure 7%

The NYT reported that 60% of people said abortion should be always/mostly legal, and 33% said abortion should be always/mostly illegal.

Don't lump those together! The question has a lot of value as it is!

I didn't say it makes any sense, but I could see people thinking this way.

He’s a “money guy”.

Third party numbers look more realistic here.

[Interlocutor is just not there yet]

Also, I would think that a lot of young people entering the electorate who are very left leaning and probably vote mostly for democrats in practice, are also way less partisan in their identification than older liberals and probably identify as independents in large margins.  If both these things are true, maybe we’ll see a shrinking advantage in partisan ID for Ds in coming national elections, even in ones where they might do quite well.

That's been going on in California for a few years. All of my Dem friends are Indys/NPP because they don't want to feel like they're grouped with a particular party. At the same time, they've voted Democrat 99% of the time and not once voted for a Republican.

Also, with automatic voter registration at the DMV, most folks (Primarily Hispanics & young people) don't want to bother with picking a party at that moment so they just pick NPP & get it over with. (https://capitolweekly.net/ca120-surprise-how-some-voters-chose-partisanship/)

Then again, your registered party don't mean anything here outside of the presidential primary
