Thank you Wil for sharing that article.

As you know I’m not into polls except on election day. However, I do find the Politico poll among “Independent” voters a little interesting. Not because I believe that poll. But because Politico readers tend to be center-right voters.

If anthing, I would’ve expected the “Independent” vote result to favor Vance more than Walz. Instead it favored Walz…..

….and by a lot!?! 🤔

I didn’t watch it but my babysis and cousin did. They both described it pretty much the same as DJ. They rated it a tie with maybe a slight edge to Vance.

So now the rest is up to Us…the Voters.

Snap polls following Tuesday’s vice presidential debate show voters think Ohio Sen. JD Vance and his Democratic opponent, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, ended their verbal jousting in a virtual draw.

A flash poll by CBS News and YouGov, released shortly after the debate aired, saw 42 percent of likely voters giving a win to Vance and 41 percent to Walz, while 17 percent judged it a tie.

A CNN poll of registered voters who watched the debate, conducted by SSRS produced a similar result: 51 percent said they thought Vance performed better and 49 percent gave the nod to Walz.

Likely voters were also split 50/50 in a Politico/Focaldata snap poll. However, the Politico poll showed Walz with a sixteen point lead among independent voters: 58 percent said the Minnesota governor won the debate versus 42 percent who sided with Vance.

One poll broke with the pack: a Daily Mail/J.L Partners survey of likely voters found that 50 percent said Vance won compared to 43 percent who said Walz came out ahead.
