Australia Parliamentary Elections: Liberal/National Coalition (The Conservative-Leaning Parties) Score Surprise "Miracle" Win Over Leftwing Labour/Green Coalitions, Despite Polls Predicting a Big Victory
Oh, right: because the classes with control over the means of communication demonize conservative-leaning people, making them systematically withhold their true voting intentions from pollsters. Carry on.I couldn't find the pre-election polling averages for Australia -- strange how errors are so quickly buried -- but I did find one single polling company showing a very slight generic ballot advantage for Labour, 51.5% to 48.5%, when all other parties were excluded from the choice. Biden, supposedly, has an 11 point advantage over Trump, 53-42. But conservatives aren't demonized as much in Australia; CNBC asked one poll analyst about the surprise win for the conservatives, and she said that there was no pronounced "Shy Tory" effect in Australia as there was in the Brexit vote and the Trump vote. She blamed the failure of the polls to predict the winner on "systematic" errors, other than people feeling pressured to conform to the liberal line. Who knows, maybe some of that 11 point lead is phantasmal. John Sexton of Hot Air sees some possible points of comparison to the 2020 US election:
The latest results showed that the Conservative Coalition has won 74 seats while labour secured 66. A party needs 76 seats for a simple majority in the 151-member House of Representatives. It was not clear if 51-year-old Morrison will require the support of independent MPs to govern. ...
A Nine-Galaxy poll released shortly before the voting stations closed in the east of the country showed a victory for the Labor party and Liberal Party-led coalition losing its bid for a third three-year term. The poll showed the Labor winning as many as 82 seats, beating the ruling Coalition.
In essence, the left-leaning party was running on the Green New Deal and Morrison won by pointing out that could damage the economy. It remains to be seen whether those results are transferrable to the United States, but you do have some of the same elements in play. First, almost the entire field of Democrats has endorsed the Green New Deal. Second, the creator of the Green New Deal, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, won't even try to explain how much it would cost or how we could pay for it. And third, the economy is doing very well right now. If that continues for another year, it shouldn’t be hard for Trump to make the pitch that it's not worth upsetting the apple cart by voting for someone like Bernie Sanders.Leftists are taking the loss with their normal display of coolness, calmness, and class:
Cathy Wilcox, a newspaper cartoonist, tweeted: "It seems unfair that the morons outnumber the thinking people at election time." Broadcaster Meshel Laurie concluded that "Australians are dumb, mean-spirited, and greedy. Accept it." Some were ready to write off the whole country. Brigid Delaney, a columnist for the Guardian, wrote, "It's the country that's rotten." She reported from the Labor party's Election Night event. People there had to face "the fact that their vision for Australia’s future was not affirmed," she wrote. That "made them feel estranged and alienated from their own country." By contrast, Zareh Ghazarian, a political-science lecturer at Monash University in Melbourne, was snobbishly restrained: "We have completely expected an opposite thing for two years," he told the Washington Post. "Voters rejected the big picture."Sounds like the left's reaction in America to 2016. Next up: DID AUSTRALIA COLLUDE WITH RUSSIANS? India is also having an election. The Trumpish nationalist Modi is expected to handily win a second term. Trumpish candidates are winning all over.

The problem is, the gaslighting is over and we hate them. So there is zero point touting your cooked polls: it doesn't even work as false motivation, because it failed so many times. If anything, it destroys ever other use polls have.

Another overseas election item worth noting; voting for the European Parliament this Sunday, because Europeans are godless heathens. The German state of Bremen will also be holding elections for its legislature, and the AfD should get seats (didn't meet the threshold in 2014, if I remember correctly).

Average was 52% - 48% advantage, almost the exact opposite of final results.

The "Labour"/green/socialist party ran on a platform primarily obsessed with "climate change," and their "solution" for it was to jack up taxes on everything while intentionally crippling the economy.
Voters took one look at that platform and said, "Eat our ass, you commie turds."

I'd be cautious about an 11 point Biden lead, especially when the economic fundamentals greatly favor Trump this time.

Amazing. Just like here in the US, and in the UK, and Israel, and elsewhere too. The pols ALWAYS skew at least 10% left. If the error was random, the skew would vary left or right with each poll.

If polls show the leftist party ahead, it will have three effects: 1. Discourage right-leaving voters, 2. Make Left-Wing voters apathetic 3. Encourage undecided voters to sign on with the winning team.
The bet is that the effects of 1 + 3 > the effect of 2.

Obama winning in 2012 was probably the most upset I was at a Presidential election but my first response was what did the GOP do wrong to not explain why Romney should win? I didn't think oh all those other people are idiots (well, okay, I did) and it's everyone's fault but my party and my candidate for losing.
I don't know, maybe it's because my politics are a reflection of how I view life as opposed to politics being the sole lens through which I view life.

In the US they are also designed to give credence to future Dem poll-stuffing efforts.
Another thing this early "yay!Biden!" poll has served to do is cool down some of the energy-related expansions in coal and natural gas country (my beloved Rust Belt). So there's literally no down-side for the Left here - lie about Biden (or whoever) strength thereby tamping down the nascent energy boom in formerly almost-completely-murdered-by-leftist Midwest and Midatlantic states.

That is NOT a MIRACLE. (same with Trump in 2016)
What makes it look like a miracle, is the false narrative driven by FakeNews makes people expect a majority want something else, but the proof is in the pudding ... the narrative was the lie, the vote proved it to be a lie.
So now the fake news pushes the "Miracle" angle ... as if 60% really wanted him to lose, but a magic trick made him win (as opposed to their narrative being a lie)
Same with the Trump win, they still claim it was a miracle, or now it is Russians did it, or Trump bewitched people. But all the lies and propaganda is from BigMoney and BigMedia ... and their commie agenda.

Speaking of my teen years, something I first learned about polls back then:
1. If the poll said "slight Democrat lead" it was actually neck and neck.
2. If the poll said "neck and neck" it was actually a slight Republican lead.
3. If the poll said "slight Republican lead" it was actually a Republican blowout.

I didn't know either Fen...looked it up. I think this is generally what he's referring to:
Lovie
A playful British term that usually refers to an actor, especially one regarded as slightly vapid or 'over the top' in their reactions and behaviour. Sometimes spelled 'luvvie' or 'luvvy'.
The reference is to a stereotype of theatre actors habitually addressing people as ‘lovie’ .
The word can also refer to the London-based social elite, and has become a popular insult from the political right against their 'lovie lefty' rivals, who are usually middle-class and focused on the arts and culture.

It's taken year to build up to this, but publicly opposing the progressive values gets your social media cancelled, gets the mob ---with assistance from the media --- to attack you, your family and friends, your employer and worse.
Why would anyone talk to a reporter, pollster or other person/org who could turn your life upside-down for wrongthink badtalk???

Having some long-time friends there, I would have to disagree with this. They're on the level of, say, the UK, but it's pervasive enough in the built up areas that some of them barely even remember that the rest of the country thinks, and lives, differently.

This belongs in the last thread, but I have really come to believe that a frontier is necessary for liberty. The more settled an area, the more people think in terms of collectivism and conformity, including enforced conformity.
People who wanted to be left alone left Europe and came to settle the New World. When the East Coast became settled, they headed West.

Well that, and people screen their phone calls pretty heavily now. Its gotten to the point that people actually get mad if you call them instead of text. Most people I know simply do not answer the phone if they don't know the number (I am the same way).
Plus, the pollsters are actively working (or being paid) not to gather accurate information, but to influence public opinion through reporting on polls.
They're worthless. All of them. I get that political junkies find them fascinating and people always want to know the future but they really are terrible.

There are more than a few places like this--even in the Lower 48, let alone AK--where the ecofiends made domestic rare earth metals extraction off limits.
I suspect that a 3rd world leader with half a brain and a supply of such minerals might suddenly choose to buddy up to the Trump Administration as well.

Forbes is not particularly reliable any longer, but honestly this would hurt the Chinese a lot more than it would us. They need our money more than we need the rare earths from that particular source; its not like there are no other sources.

As for polls saying that Biden can beat Trump.
Any poll about which Dem candidate could beat Trump is going to be pushed and influenced by those candidates and their supporters. Biden is a sucky candidate but if he can convince people that only he can beat Trump he might get the nomination.

"And voters have responded positively - especially in NSW, where the Liberals' primary vote held up even more strongly than it did in Queensland."
Basically he argues is that Aussies are more moderate and the labor party was too radical. Plus, he points out that "quiet" Aussies, the folks who just do their job and keep their head down, appreciate someone who listens to them (similar to here).

"EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) A man was found dead Sunday next to the U.S.- Mexico border wall West of Sunland Park and Santa Teresa.
The man has been identified as a 26-year-old Mexican citizen, according to the Dona Ana County Sheriff's Office.
He was found face down and unresponsive at about 11 p.m. on May 19 near the wall along N.M. Road 9 at mile markers 142.
According to a news release, deputies said the man was believed to have been crossing illegally into the United States.
The investigation is being handled by the Dona Ana County Sheriff's Office who is working with both the Border Patrol and Mexican consulate to notify the man's family."
That area, as best I can tell, is where vehicle barriers were replaced with 18-foot bollard walls last year.

Thelma and Louise is a modern exploration of the liberation that comes from antinomian abandonment of social mores, laws, and conventions.

Particularly Melbourne, which considers Sydney rightwing. There are still urban centers quite conservative, Brisbane for example. Scores of Sissies are still quite kissed about the door-to-door gun confiscations in '96, but mass migration is universally loathed outside the Labour apparatchiks. And bear in mind as bad as our propaganda organs are Oz 's is far worse.
We are in the midst of a global upheaval and it goes unnoticed much of the time. Odd that.

Very interesting.
Trump, the other day, explaining the tariffs, said that some country other than ChIna could produce the same product and sell it here sans tariff.
The tariff is not against the product as much as it is against the country producing it. I guess.
