  • Maybe it’s the sample size being a bit lacking? I’m no expert, but IIRC, 1k is the bare minimum for such, and only 871 of those surveyed are relevant to the results — or, am I missing something?

    The latest Reuters/Ipsos poll surveyed 1,029 U.S. adults online, nationwide, including 871 registered voters. Among these, 785 were considered the most likely to turn out on Election Day. Among these likely voters, Harris led 50% to 44%, though similar to her lead among all registered voters, her advantage was only five points when using unrounded figures.



  • Modulating one’s speech according to audience is not dialectic morphology, much less general etymology — it’s a matter of scope.

    You can use whatever you want, no argument there. Whether or not it comes off sounding semi-literate is more up to your audience and your own self-awareness than any “centralized governing body”, citizen. 🙇🏽‍♂️🫣
