How the fuck are there still undecided voters, you'd think everyone at this point would have already cemented their opinions but it seems like there's just a good third of the USA running purely on vibes.
Americans are so idiosyncratic that I don't think you'd get a solid straight answer. My mother is currently in the third of undecided voters. She likes Trump because she despises Mexicans, but she also likes Harris because she feels like a Harris administration would involve a full UK annexation of Ireland.
my mother is very deranged and believes herself to be a reincarnation of several ancient Egyptian dieties. Her political ideology is a combination of white suburban frailty, a fetish for vampires, paganism gleaned from the History Channel, and an intense hateful rivalry of her elderly Latina coworker
My buddy works for the dems currently, and I had made the joke about Dems doing vibes-based-politics a few times, and apparently, yes, they are doing vibes based politicking as a policy. They're told not to talk about issues but rather just how bad everything will be if she doesn't win. He tried to request talking points for different policies, and they literally don't have any.
I mean if you're the average American voter and your only care is "will I benefit more economically under Trump or Harris" the answer isn't immediately obvious. Anyone who's a single issue voter on Palestine doesn't have a super straightforward choice either, although I imagine most of them will vote third party or not at all.
Exactly, I don't really think there are a lot of people who are undecided. People aren't voting on individual issues anymore, there are two competing narratives regarding what the future of US should look like, and people either subscribe to one or the other. Anybody who is going to vote for Harris was already going to vote democrats regardless of who the candidate is because they think the republicans are destroying the country, and vice versa.

Americans are not normal people

I'm somewhere between "I'm worried Donald Trump will come for my hormones and force me to destransition" and "I want to see the democrats destroyed"
I'm wondering if polling companies are quietly bundling "none of the above" with "undecided".

There are no undecided voters there are just liars and lonely people who think surveys count as human interaction.
You underestimate the power of , most people are incredibly uninformed when it comes to politics.
