I work for a telephone fundraising company for great causes, organizations, etc. I want to share an observation that I have not read anywhere, worth noting and perhaps acting on if possible, especially as this angle was also substantiated by something one of my phone contacts mentioned.

1) I have observed that with so many seniors passing away as a result of the Coronavirus and especially per the way some states handled the seniors, putting them altogether in elder homes and causing basically an epidemic there among seniors. Now let's reflect... If seniors are dying, how does that affect our vote patterns? We lose conservative votes. Then with ALL kinds of deaths listed as Coronavirus, the emphasis on senior deaths, per se, may be downplayed or lost.

2) One of my phone contacts mentioned that he was called by a polling service -- a rare occurrence, he said, as he had not been called before and in asking all his friends, they had not ever been called by a polling service either. The pollster asked his name and age. Upon hearing his age, which was a senior age, the pollster hung up. If seniors are excluded from polls, then results will be skewed toward liberals, etc. Is that how we keep reading about such polls that do not seem to match our reality?
