What the fuck?
Most voters who fall into the undecided category 90 days before the election will not make a final choice until within 72 hours of casting their vote.
In such a polarizing environment today and with an idea of how both administrations would work (2016 and 2020), who is still needing to wait until 72 hours beforehand?
Gonna call bullshit on anyone needing more details to make up their idea about the candidate in this race. Not saying you are posting bullshit, but rather anyone that says they really don’t know is full of shit. They know.
Almost all of the voters who actually matter in this electoral environment.
This is a bias you have because you pay attention to political news. You are on a political discussion board you are the exception. Most people don't pay any attention to elections until October, at best.
You know, I can concede that point about my bias. I still say that they already have examples of both administrations and what they will be like. Nothing will be a surprise.
