Ronna McDaniel:

Huge victory for election integrity from the Maine Supreme Court!

Marc Elias and the Democrats sued to allow ballots to be received up to 10 days *after* Election Day and eliminate signature matching, but the court ruled in our favor!

We had already defeated the Democrats’ attempt to legalize ballot harvesting in a lower court, which they did not appeal.

The RNC will continue to do whatever it takes to http://ProtectTheVote.com!

xxxxxxxxxxx

This is getting very bizarre. Different State Supreme Courts are making different rulings about signature matching and how long people have to mail in their ballots.

This seems like something that should be consistent across states.

Has Bill Barr had anything to say about any of this Biden mess? Has he said anything about anything in awhile? Maybe he's holed up with Hunter.

I don't know, but that would make sense if the FBI is doing what I think it is doing.

I don't want to provide my email and phone number, I just want to make a contribution and don't seem able to do so without a login. I even tried relaunching my browser in safe mode with all addons disabled in case of an ad blocker or something. Wish I could just figure a way to make a contribution without providing personal information.

Send a check. But honestly, I don't know what the big deal is. Use a throwaway email or a liberal's phone number if you have to.

Trump has reached an astonishing 46% approval rate among African-Americans.

--------------------

Rasmussen poll says 46% of black voters approve of President Trump


CHRIS PANDOLFO
A daily tracking poll of President Donald Trump's job approval released Friday showed an eye-popping surge in approval for Trump among black voters.

According to Rasmussen Reports, Trump's approval among black likely voters surged this week from 25% on Monday to 46% by the end of the week on Friday.

Rasmussen's daily tracking poll on Friday found that 51% of likely U.S. voters approve of President Trump's job performance while 48% disapprove.

To say that the Rasmussen poll stands in contrast to other polling on President Trump's job performance is a gross understatement.

According to the Real Clear Politics average of polls, Trump's job performance is an average 9.5 points underwater, 44.4% approve to 53.9% disapprove. Recent polls on Trump's approval other than Rasmussen have Trump at minus 9 points (Economist/YouGov), minus 16 points (Reuters/Ipsos), minus 14 points (Quinnipiac), and minus 12 points (Politico/Morning Consult).

It is highly unlikely that Trump's approval among black likely voters managed to increase 20 points in just five days, especially when no other polls show a similar trend.

But that is not to say Trump is definitively not performing better-than-expected among black voters.

The Trump campaign has made outreach to black voters a top priority headed into the U.S. election. President Trump often boasts that he's been the best president for black Americans in U.S. history, with the possible exemption of President Abraham Lincoln, who issued the Emancipation Proclamation ending slavery in the Confederate states and fought the Civil War. But aside from his rhetorical exaggerations, he has put forward serious policies specifically designed to reach out to and meet the wants of black Americans.

Last month, Trump gave a speech introducing the "Platinum Plan," a sweeping set of policy proposals calling for a $500 billion investment in black communities to create 3 million new jobs for black Americans. His plan aims to give black Americans greater access to capital for business development, expand school choice and education opportunities, and expand criminal justice reform among other policies.

At Thursday night's final presidential debate, Trump touted his record on criminal justice reform, funding historically black colleges, and creating economic opportunity zones. He accused Democratic nominee Joe Biden of being in government for 47 years and failing to achieve anything for the black community. Trump attacked Biden for sponsoring a crime bill in the 1990s that led to an increase of incarcerations of black Americans, questioning why Biden, if he now opposes the crime bill, didn't act on it when he occupied the White House with President Obama and had a Democratic-controlled Congress.

The messaging is clearly targeted at peeling away black support for Biden.

By no means does polling data indicate that these overtures to black Americans will help Trump win the black vote on Election Day. But one study reported by FiveThirtyEight did show that compared to 2016, Trump's support among young black voters (18 to 44) improved by 10 points.

Also, a study of black swing voters found that younger black voters don't want to be taken for granted by the Democratic Party and tend to have a more negative view of Democrats, and a more positive view of Republicans, than their older peers. Young black men, while they overwhelmingly say Trump is a racist, incompetent, and disagree with his policies, also admire how he "shows strength and defies the establishment."

Ultimately, the only poll that matters is the one on Election Day, when the American people will decide if Trump deserves four more years in office. Don't bet on 46% of black voters to swing for Trump.

But don't be surprised if Trump's support surprises.

I agree that I wouldn't take it as gospel, but I still think it is interesting, even if it is overstated.

If we reject the suppression polls, we must also reject the polls we favor. You can't have it both ways. The truth is all polls are inaccurate, for any number of reasons, and the data they yield is useless to anyone seeking the truth.

The only poll result I saw that I think is accurate said, "100% of viewers believe their favored candidate won the debate." The rest are plagued with issues ranging from the pollsters' own bias down through the pollee's refusal to answer the phone (that would be me). I wouldn't believe one, even if I agreed with it.
