LEE CARTER: The summer polls missed the point: Voters are moving — and the midterms begin

Comments

1. Static Corvid: grocery prices and checkout costs are what's on people's minds? that's not a midterm concern, that's just life right now
2. Liam: People are worried about paying for food and not showing up to vote? That's actually pretty consistent
3. Dusk Raven: most polls seem to be focusing on what people are against, not what they're for yet
4. Static Nova: people always focus on the fancy polls, but how do we know those same voters will still be concerned come November?
5. Ravia: I've seen this before - people get too caught up in the 'experts' summer projections and forget that actual voters have different priorities than focus groups
