Which is a little odd when you think about it. Trump is a very different kind of Republican, and he even said so himself. He's the first President who opposed NAFTA and implemented trade tariffs. Rank & file Republicans have always been in favor of free trade, and would have never have even suggested tariffs. Trump's policies are really more reminiscent of what the Reform Party stood for some 20 or 25 years ago. His campaigns are heavily rooted in populism, just like the Ross Perot & Pat Buchanan campaigns were.

I agree more with Trump than I do with many of Biden's positions, especially on the economy ... however, Trump is just not a good leader. His antics are much like those of a child who never grew up, especially when he told suburban woman, "would you please like meeeee?" On top of that, the name calling, the ranting, and the paranoia he expresses are very unfitting for the Presidency. We need better leadership and a restoration of liberty instead of more government control, which is why I voted for the Libertarian candidate.

Isn't it interesting how this poll seems to closely reflect the national average polling?

While CD poling isn't scientific this is the first time I ever seen Biden winning a poll here on POC.

Voted for Clinton in 2016. The behavior of the left since then has been so utterly depraved that I voted for a reality show oompa-loompa as the savior of the Republic this week. The last four years have turned me into a Republican. On the bright side, this will save me hours of researching candidates each election. I'll vote red till I'm dead or the left loses the Democratic Party.

That's terrible... no precinct should be like that. Every American should be able to vote within an hour.

Retired white male here. Voted for Biden/Harris. Voted for Romney in 2012 and Kasich was my choice in 2016. I would vote for a head of lettuce before I would vote for Trump.

Have to admit Trump has made politics way more popular not sure if that is in a good way. Prior to this I would watch one debate, and our ballots would lay around the house for a few weeks until I got around to filling them out. I would yell to my wife while she watched TV who she wanted to vote for she would tell me just copy your ballot I don't care.

After next week ill get my free time back won't be thinking about politics.

I am a Cleveland native and grew up in North Olmsted. Moved after college graduation but still have a fondness for my home state.



My dad was a blue-collar guy who worked for Ford Motor. He was a diehard Democrat.

I remember him joking that "all Republicans should be shot at birth."


I think he was onto something.



I wish Sherrod Brown would have run for Prez!
