Voters over 70 are backing Harris over Trump, 51 to 48 percent, Emerson College poll finds

A new poll shows some baby boomers and members of the Silent Generation are switching allegiances from former President Donald Trump to Vice President Kamala Harris.

The Emerson College poll released Thursday  shows voters over 70 backing Harris over Trump 51 to 48 percent. That’s a small but positive shift for Harris, as last month, 50 percent of the group supported Trump while 48 percent backed President Joe Biden, who dropped out of the race and endorsed Harris last month.

The group includes some baby boomers, who were born between 1946 and 1964, and the Silent Generation, born between 1925 and 1945.

    Please do quote where I said that. I never did and never would.

    how bout i quote this tirade?

    The people screaming at presidential candidates. Haven’t accomplished anything.

    This is just more proof you need to speak less and read more. Fuck son, at least proofread your own damn comments so i don’t have to struggle like this

      That’s talking about their protest specifically. Not protest in general. So just as I thought you were being disingenuous.

        disengenous huh?

        you little shit

        i could go line by line through our interactions and point out how disingenous most of your words are, or even how you deny my accusations and prove me right in the same comment, like the one you just made… but the only thing i’d ever receive from you is wild unhinged wordsalad, and that is not a good value-return for my investment of time. so here’s what we’re gonna do.
