How does this compare to prior results?

I believe last was Biden +4

No, you're probably thinking of their early April poll that was Biden+1 with adults, +4 with RV.  Last week's was Trump+2 with adults, Biden+1 with RV.  (This week's is tied in both populations.)

The Trump+2 with adults was ABC/Ipsos, not Reuters/Ipsos.

Maybe you should check before doubling down next time:

I don’t remember there being one last week

TBF, it was more like two weeks ago.  But it was the previous Reuters/Ipsos poll before the current one.  From the report:

Reuters Ipsos TikTok Survey
Conducted by Ipsos using KnowledgePanel®
A survey of the American general population (ages 18+)
Interview dates: April 29-30, 2024
Number of interviews: 1,022

Ok then yeah I remember that one

Walmart had pretty good earnings , maybe a shift of middle income consumers to trashier Walmart ?

Amazon and Walmart are way ahead in technology and there's no way Target can play the same game.

Israel should tell the ICC any attempt to arrest Israeli officials will be treated as a declaration of war and we should tell the ICC that we support Israel in doing that

Trump win Nevada/Arizona
and if trump win Michigan it a sign that Biden have lost horribly.

Trump winning Nevada or Arizona seems very unlikely to be a first sign, given how late those states close.

And how slow they tend to count. Good chance those are the last 2 states called imo even if they aren’t the closest

They can be, but they don't have to be.  Also, to the extent they can be, it's overwhelmingly at the "disparate impact" level vs. intentionally.

HOWEVER it stands to reason that voters would live longer than non-voters,

Here's a correlation I'd need an explanation on.

Generally speaking, voters tend to be better-educated, higher income, and higher SES than non-voters (and as far as I'm aware, this has always been the case), meaning that they tend to have a longer life expectancy.

Who killed the Iranian president?

(A) CIA

Wrong answers only.

“Because midterms are different and a bunch of low propensity Trump voters who don’t vote in midterms will show up in 2024”

There may be some truth to this but it’s too superficial for my liking

I'm willing to bet there's just as many low propensity anti-Trump voters, so I really don't think this is a good talking point.

Congratulations to re-elected Gov. Scott. I suspect Miro will win the primary and lose the general by ~30.
