When it comes to the election, it is all about the polls. From day one, all experts and donors look at are the polls. But since Donald Trump won the White House in 2016, polls mean absolutely nothing. Even the Democrats know this, yet they continue to praise Biden for leading over President Trump. Well, let’s look past the polls and at the only thing that matters during an election – the American people, and what they are saying seems to contradict what the Democrat’s precious polls are showing.
With just a week to go before the election, both candidates are hot on the campaign trail, each one hoping to gain enough votes to win the White House. Well, if audience size has anything to do with it – Biden might not want to start packing.
On Wednesday, President Trump stopped by Arizona to give them a warm welcome only to find thousands of Americans waiting to give him the exact same thing. Even Reuters’ Jeff Mason was there. He filmed the seas of fans and shared it on his Twitter feed.

As for the Biden/Harris campaign, Arizona might not be looking so hot for them. Campaigning in the same state, Harris’ rally only saw 100 cars according to the local paper. Of those hundred cars, there were only around 30 people who dared venture out close to the stage. Given that the area is also a drive-in, it’s unclear if all the cars were actually there for Biden and not just for a movie. It should be noted that around half the cars “honked” when Harris took the stage.
There are 8 cars seen at the Kamala Harris drive-in in Tucson. Judging by the honking, not many more. https://t.co/IuZYTMioCe pic.twitter.com/rYgEbvSe0o

Harris didn’t seem startled by the size of the crowd, giving a light-hearted answer about not risking anyone’s safety. In front of the small crowd, Harris said, “Joe and I have been clear from the beginning. We are gonna talk with voters, but do it in a way that we don’t risk their safety and their health. And so I would caution anyone who is trying to talk to folks to think about the health and well-being of the people they’re speaking with.”
While good advice about personal distancing, the reason for the low turnout isn’t because of COVID-19. If that was the case, why were there thousands and thousands of people standing for President Trump?
