I assume it means that the poll was done by IPSOS, that they surveyed 1,018 registered voters (RVs), on the date of 7/22.

OK, thanks. Then 1,018 stands out. Meaningless. Who were these registered voters? Was it a wide swath or a narrow one? Incredibly small sample size either way.

Ah, good ole Ipsos. I used to work there years ago, and revenue was always highest in election years due to these types of polls. A 1k sample size is ridiculously small and not indicative of anything really.

Depending on where you took the poll you can get any results you want.

I see your point. The die hards won’t be swayed one way or the other but, I see where the undecideds will have a whole new equation to decipher.

Edit: I can only see how she helps the equation for Dems.
I agree, I wasn’t voting for Biden, but I’ll probably vote for Kamala

I would literally vote for a box of rocks before voting for Trump.

Obama called Harris a Marxist fraud?

“There is a strong sense by many in the Democrat Party – namely Barack Hussein Obama – that Kamala Harris is a Marxist fraud who cannot beat President Trump, and they are still holding out for someone ‘better,'” Trump spokesman Cheung said.

They have to know that Obama is going to call BS on this and endorse Kamala.

You could also argue that they forced Obama's hand and boxed him in to where he had no choice but to endorse her, just to show that they were wrong.

What evidence would there be to support that argument? Likely Obama just wanted to announce his endorsement on a particular date and in a particular way. This is somewhat common.

He advocated for an Open convention prior.

The particular date was Yesterday, and he wanted his call to be recorded for her to be filmed taking it from a parking garage?

It is a little weird, I'll admit. My guess is that Obama didn't want to immediately endorse Kamala because he wanted it to be perceived as the Dem voters anointing Kamala, not "elites" like himself or other powerful people trying to "force" Kamala to be the choice. But he didn't anticipate that Biden would basically insist on it being Kamala as a condition of his stepping down, and that almost immediately 100% of the other viable contenders would step aside and endorse Kamala, and that there'd be this huge swelling of support for her within minutes of Biden's announcement. But I don't really know because Obama won't return my calls.

Did Biden actually insist on it being Kamala? There are conflicting reports on that, and people believe that they have evidence that it wasn't quite as nice as it's portrayed.

At some point this stuff just gets silly. It's weird that people believe and repost these things so eagerly.

What's more egregious in my opinion is peoples inability to discern fact from fiction and regardless just repost it. It's like regurgitating vomit.
