The Republicans won’t be getting 60% of the Hispanic vote in 2022. Maybe 40% at the high end. They lost them 59-38 in 2020. There will be no 20 point swings.
Hispanic Voters Now Evenly Split Between Parties, WSJ Poll Finds
Republicans have made rapid gains among a crucial voting demographic that has long favored Democrats

The minute that shifts to 51/49 Democrats will suddenly be in favor of border control.

Why aren't any of the people so adamant that everyone be vaxed down at the border poking the people streaming across the border? I guess those folks cant spread the virus?

Wonder what the education level of illegal immigrants is? Are they counted in your chart TC?
Uh… 37-37 with 22% undecided is a hell of a lot different than 60-40 cowboy… they aren’t all gonna magically go Republican…
Wait another year.


New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

Five years ago, the results of this poll would have been completely different.

Yeah but you want the entire thing to flip in a year by over 20% based on ALL of the undecideds breaking one way. Get your head out of the clouds. Nothing ever goes ALL one way.

That's funny. Pretty much all of the "mistakes" in the last election cycle went one way.

There was no massive voter fraud or anything else. The man lost fair and square by running a shitty campaign that didn’t quite get him past the post. Nobody on the Republican side has been able to come up with ANYTHING to the contrary even when they paid for an audit of Arizona and it came back with more votes for Biden than first thought. The same from a recount of Georgia. Too bad. Get over it.

Not so fast, mister. There was big time fraud.


Florida Trump supporters arrested on charges of casting more than one vote in 2020 election

Three Central Florida residents who have expressed support for former president Donald Trump were recently arrested following reports that they cast more than one vote during the 2020 election, according to various Florida news media outlets.

Jay Ketcik, John Rider and Joan Halstead, who all live in The Villages in Sumter County, Fla., face felony charges and up to five years in prison for allegedly casting more than one ballot in the most recent presidential contest, according to county arrest records.

The three were jailed after Sumter County Supervisor of Elections Bill Keen launched a probe of allegations of voting irregularities, according to prosecutors. Keen is not commenting on the cases, given the ongoing criminal investigation.

The three did not respond immediately to efforts to reach them for comment.

It remains unknown who the voters backed in 2020. Ketcik, 63, and Halstead, 71, are both registered Republicans. While Rider, 61, is not affiliated with a political party, there are pro-Donald Trump posts on his Facebook page. Halstead’s Facebook page also features posts favoring the former president. And a Facebook page belonging to Ketcik also showed support for Trump, although that page appears to have been deleted, according to Orlando’s CBS affiliate.

More than a year after the 2020 election, Trump repeatedly makes false claims that his loss to Joe Biden was the result of widespread voter fraud, allegations that have been debunked by numerous courts and state reviews.

Prosecutors say Rider cast ballots in Florida and elsewhere, although details about where else he voted were not clear at the time of his arrest. According to prosecutors, Halstead voted in person in Florida in addition to casting an absentee ballot in New York. Ketcik voted by mail in Florida along with casting an absentee ballot in Michigan, prosecutors say.


It is not a crime to be registered in more than one state, but it is unlawful to cast a ballot in multiple states. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), who previously declined to respond to questions about whether he thinks the 2020 election was rigged, has spoken out against voter fraud — a crime that multiple reports have shown to be rare. DeSantis is proposing a new state office to investigate election fraud.

In May, DeSantis enthusiastically embraced Trump’s demand for tougher election rules, signing into law a slew of new voting restrictions in a live broadcast, despite previously touting how smoothly his state’s elections ran in 2020.

DeSantis hailed the measure as necessary to shore up public faith in elections, but critics accused him of trying to make it harder to vote, particularly for people of color. The Florida measure adds hurdles to voting by mail, restricts the use of drop boxes and prohibits any actions that could influence those standing in line to vote, which voting rights advocates said is likely to discourage nonpartisan groups from offering food or water to voters as they wait.

79% of omicron cases in the U.S. are among the fully vaccinated.

Tell me again why I need four shots in order to prevent nothing?
Those infected were not fully vaccinated, they weren't boosted. Boosted Americans are safe.

However, NYC cases of Omicron doubled in 4 days. This is nasty contagious.

Boosted Americans aren't clogging up hospitals, you ignorant fuck.
They/them, non-binary and proud.

Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
