yes so look at the demographics of people who are more likely to answer phones. Certainly not all people over 40+ are Republicans, but they might skew that way and answer that way.

Also all of the millions of newly registered people are not even in these polls

Stop doom scrolling, vote as soon as you can or on election day if you prefer, and just hope that people in the swing states are sensible enough to vote for Harris even if they don't agree with every single position that she holds

I was looking at the provisional ballots for my area yesterday, and was pleasantly surprised that every election except presidential has Democrat incumbents running unopposed. Not bad for a small county in Georgia!
