Senior #Harris campaign officials say campaign’s internal data show them winning by double digits among battleground state voters who made up their mind in the last week.

Focus groups, officials say, show damage to #Trump from Madison Square Garden rally and #PuertoRico comments.

Elections are won or lost in the last two weeks. And wow, what a week this has been.

"In 2000, eighteen per cent said that they decided which Presidential candidate to vote for only in the last two weeks of the campaign; five per cent, enough to swing most elections, decided the day they voted."

@kralcttam @GottaLaff You have to be an idiot, and live in a cave to be "undecided".

@alexf24 @kralcttam @GottaLaff I don't buy that any of them are undecided. Lying that they are is just a way to pretend they're smart, not "sheeple".

@dalias @alexf24 @kralcttam @GottaLaff I think a fair number aren't trying to choose between candidates, but whether to bother voting. This may have been the fire they needed lit under them.

@textualdeviance @alexf24 @kralcttam @GottaLaff Yes that's a lot more plausible. But I don't think "undecided voter" is a non misleading characterization of such a person.
