    Polls can be worded to show bias. The primaries showed exactly what the current reality of the situation is. When AIPAC weighs in, the candidate they’re trying to burn loses. They ‘burned’ two members of the squad and left two. The two they chose not to campaign against won their primaries, they two they did? Lost.

    It’s almost like they wanted to send a message. “We can fuck you up, don’t get too far out of line”.

    At least as it stands now, the number of people who are willing to actually show up to vote for congressmen/women that vocally support Palestine isn’t enough to match the funding advantage their opponents will have.

    All the more reason that telling folks to not vote unless they get what they want is counterproductive. No amount of talking and protesting or complaining online matters. The only thing that counts is actually showing up and voting.

      I have never told anyone not to vote, if you recall, my point for this entire comment thread has been that most pro-Palestinians are still going to vote for Harris, it is true that polls can be biases, but seeing as you haven’t provided any sources, I’m going to continue to believe in the ones I provided. I’m pretty sure primaries haven’t happened yet, and unless your talking about ones from last election, I don’t see what you’re talking about. Please give me a source to support your views, and please respond to my point, and not a straw man.
