Larry Sabato BTW - the best picture of a politician and a dog.

Best advice. The polling industry is in disarray. On top of how early it is. Just know we gotta fight like hell to win. And don’t you get discouraged. We have no option to let up or we will get let down.

Polls, smolls. Today CNN has Trump up nationally by 49-43%, while CBS has ties in MI, PA, and WI. If CBS is correct, then CNN is almost certainly wrong, and vice versa. RESOLVED, we will ignore polls until after the conventions. And maybe beyond.

Despising animal cruelty should be bipartisan.

#KristiNoem_PuppyBearDeerKiller 🤮

Here’s the thing about Kristi Noem
- Killing a dog callously is awful.
- Killing it because it wasn’t trained is disgusting.
- Bragging about in a book is stupid.
- Attacking people for criticizing you is pathetic.
- Wearing it as a badge to prove you’re tough is psychotic.

Kristi, get some help. Really. Oh, and my students of all ideological stripes are so revolted by your puppy-killing that they wouldn't vote for you if you were the only name on the ballot. #KristiNoem

The thing that makes Kristi Noem's puppy-killing story additionally horrendous is that she described the dog as 'having the time of her life' and 'out of her mind with excitement' and 'a picture of pure joy' -- right before Noem shot her in the head. The height of cruelty.

On behalf of Professor Larry Sabato and everyone at Center for Politics at UVA UVA thank you Professor Liz Cheney for another great semester.

What a pleasure to engage with the bright students at UVA’s Center for Politics at UVA!

Thanks for having me, Larry Sabato!

Trump's 'little peanut' was the most disgusting thing I've seen at UVA in 54 years here. It was not 'nothing'; it was a sick display of neo-Nazis' love for Adolph Hitler--and Donald Trump.

Larry Sabato I wish voters better understood the relationship between our votes for President and U.S. Senator and how the composition of #SCOTUS results from those votes.

A few votes - or lack of people bothering to vote - in a few places in a few elections gave us this Court.

I wonder how low the #SupremeCourt 's public approval ratings can go? Gallup had it at 58% DISAPPROVE, 41% approve in 9/23. Throwing lifelines to Trump certainly won't lift their approval number. #TrumpTrials

Walter Shapiro Rachel Bitecofer 🗽💡🔭🦆 Larry Sabato I agree with under reporting. It’s not limited to Trump. I’m listening to five of the six justices on the highest court in the land — the Supreme Court. They sound like they’ve fallen down the conspiracy theorists “Alice in Wonderland” rabbit hole.

REMEMBER: If Trump loses 5%, he'll likely lose.
If Trump is convicted in NY, 5% of Trump voters say they would be LESS likely to vote for him; 62% of Trump voters say it would not make a difference; 31% say they would be MORE likely to vote for Trump. (New Quinnipiac Poll)
