    I’m willing most of the undecided voters are Republicans who know Trump is awful. Anyone who was already voting against Trump is going to continue doing that.

    My hope is that Kennedy will steal those votes from Trump.

      I hate to be so defeatist, but I honestly don’t even consider most voters to understand politics at all. Trump voters don’t realize they’re voting for tax cuts for billionaires, raises on everyone else, and a massive deficit. Biden voters probably don’t know anything he’s done in the last three years. Kennedy voters could be siphoning from either or both uneducated groups.

      You and me having frequent discussion and access to unbiased news feeds, we’re a minority.

      But yeah, hopefully trumpets jump ship in the Generals.

      I firmly believe there are no voters undecided between Trump and Biden. If anyone SAYS they’re undecided, it’s Trump voters who won’t admit who they’re voting for, or people trying to decide between voting and not voting.

      That’s not how the Electoral College works though. If Biden doesn’t make 270 then it gets thrown into Congress and they vote by state delegation. It doesn’t matter if the end result is 269-Biden; 227-Trump; 42-RFK. That’s a Trump win unless some state delegations change hands in November; (The new Congress votes).
