I think many Undecideds are really decided and know who they’ll vote for. They say they’re Undecided in order to be interviewed and quoted in the press, be featured on tv or internet, or be selected to participate in a paid focus group.

I think many Undecideds are really decided and know who they’ll vote for. They say they’re Undecided in order to be interviewed and quoted in the press, be featured on tv or internet, or be selected to participate in a paid focus group. Undecided voters may say they need more information in order to decide but they may not be truthful. If you are truly an undecided voter (Harris vs Trump) at this point, you’ve just come out into the sunlight after spending 10 years without media of any kind.
MSNBC had a piece featuring a ‘live focus group’ of Phoenix area “undecideds” shortly after the end of the debate. While one such alleged undecided voter stated she was pretty convinced that Harris had won her over, another woman was convinced ‘she could not vote for Harris’ because of ‘her policies’ and that she would vote for neither candidate (Read: she will hold her nose and vote for Trump). Two young men were also interviewed. One, identified as an immigrant, said his family immigrated “the right way” and blamed democrats for the border, and said he would still ‘lean Trump’. Another young man said he came in ‘leaning Trump’ and if he had to vote today, he would still vote Trump. In summary they were interviewing folks purported to be ‘undecided voters’ amongst whom subsequent 30 second interviews showed to almost all be Trump voters who for some reason wished to be seen as “undecided” . So I’m just bloviating for a bit before saying, I agree with you 100%
