This can be a roundabout methodology of polling that takes the strain off of shy Trump voters. Like all polling on this election, it ought to be taken with a grain of salt.

‘MAJOR REALIGNMENT’: Michigan Strikes Towards Trump in Ultimate Stretch Earlier than Election
“There’s been a significant realignment in Michigan and nationwide politics, with former Democrats now changing into Republicans and former Republicans changing into Democrats,” Mitchell, president of Mitchell Analysis & Communications Inc., informed The Every day Sign.
Probably the most hotly contested swing states, Michigan could decide the result of the 2024 presidential election. Voters have eight selections for president on the Nov. 5 poll, together with former President Trump, Vice President Harris, unbiased Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Inexperienced Get together candidate Jill Stein, and libertarian Chase Oliver…
However, Mitchell mentioned, polls about voters’ help for Trump could be skewed as a result of “shy” voters gained’t admit they’re voting for him, even via on-line polling platform SurveyMonkey.
One approach to get round that hesitancy, he mentioned, is to ask for whom many of the particular person’s “pals and neighbors” are voting.
“After we requested that query, by a 10-point margin, 46-36%, voters mentioned that their pals and neighbors have been voting for Donald Trump,” mentioned Mitchell, who shouldn’t be associated to this correspondent. “That’s a sign that Trump could win Michigan, or is doing higher in Michigan than the ballot outcomes.”
These associated tidbits are attention-grabbing, once more, take them with a grain of salt.
From a supply in DC:
“Her [Kamala] inside polling is horrible… she’s going to lose Pennsylvania and Michigan.
Trump has a VERY good shot at profitable this election. I don’t look after him, however beginning to see that he’s the higher selection.”
Holy Sh*t.
