Not at all. A swing voter is someone who does (or is likely to) switch from D or R or R to D from one general election to the next.

"Swing Voter" generally falls into the same line as "Independent" wherein what's actually being said is "I'm afraid to admit who I'm voting for because even I know its the wrong choice".

But really, this:

A swing voter is someone who after an entire presidential campaign still hasnt been able to form an opinion.

It's worse than that -- it's someone who is at or above voting age who is either oblivious to or genuinely conflicted about the difficult question: "Republican fascism, (Y/N)?"

The "political community" on this board seems to be:

Post news, complain and/or post memes, repeat all over again.

Anyway....people need to wake up and actually do more. Get your head out of the sand.

They're not pretending. They're a chud.

They actually believe Donald Trump's BS.

Trump said he would let Israel finish the job. If that didn't put the 2024 election choice into crystal clarity for someone, I don't know what to tell them.

Swing voters are why the Dems lost. Instead of learning, they double down on purity tests instead of courting influence to win in 2028 make it make sense.

That would depend.

I mean, if hypothetically this swing voter voted for trump.do they regret it? Are they aware of how they got conned? Have they learned from their mistakes?

or is this hypothetical person doubling down?

Because Im not going to be an asshole to someone whose trying.
