In 2024, the polls conducted in the last two weeks understated his support by 2.4 points on average. First, it’s possible that the polls — once again — failed to capture enough new voters or voters who changed their votes from backing Biden in 2020 to backing Trump in 2024. This is a statistical correction that pollster used this cycle to address the previous undercount of Trump voters. Properly understood, pre-election polls can play an important role in democracy by providing a sense of what outcomes seem possible. Instead, we should consider how we can use pre-election polls in ways that convey the electoral possibilities at play and better describe the uncertainties involved.

Hegseth did not respond to shouted questions from NBC News about the New Yorker article and other allegations. Senators offered their full-throated support to Hegseth after the meeting, downplaying the accusations.

Sumy, Ukraine CNN —The dawn assault inside Russia’s Kursk region never even got to a gunfight, yet betrayed the intensity of the battle in Kremlin territory. They provide a rare insight into the nearly four-month-long Ukrainian occupation of Kursk. A funeral ceremony in Irpin, Ukraine, is held last month for Serhii Solovyov, a soldier who died during the Kursk offensive. Recent Russian assaults in his area of Kursk have proven as ineffective as costly, he said. His drone commander, callsign “JS” for Java Script, said the unit killed 50 Russians that day.

CNN —The Denver Broncos defense scored two interception touchdowns to defeat the Browns 41-32 on Monday to spoil a record-setting night for Cleveland’s Jameis Winston and Jerry Jeudy.

Winston quickly made up for the interception, guiding the Browns offense 70 yards down the field, ending with a four-yard touchdown pass to tight end David Njoku.

For roughly a decade after that first auction, he continued to broker deals the conventional way — for American sellers, Aussie-style auctions were a tough sell. Real-estate auctions are a time-honored tradition in Australia, dating back more than 200 years to its days as a British colony. But in times of healthy demand for homes, auctions can deliver benefits for sellers looking to ride out the frenzy. "I don't think the American consumer is ready for auctions yet," says Rob Hahn, the CEO of Decentre Labs, a company he started in 2022 to bring online real-estate auctions to the masses. The biggest beneficiaries, Duby tells me, may just be real-estate agents: When buyers and sellers are shuffled through this murky process, they'll look for a professional guide.

Some Democrats bristle at Biden's pardon justificationBy Carol E. Lee, Sarah Fitzpatrick, Gary Grumbach and Dareh GregorianIt’s not just that President Joe Biden pardoned his son Hunter.

Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller said Monday he is anticipating an interest rate cut in December but is concerned about recent trends on inflation that could change his mind. That would follow a half-point cut in September and a quarter-point reduction in November. “As of today, I am leaning toward continuing the work we have started in returning monetary policy to a more neutral setting,” Waller said. Waller said he will watch incoming employment and inflation data closely. Even with the slowing progress on inflation, Waller said broader economic health has him feeling like it will be appropriate to continue to ease monetary policy.

As June’s Pride Month festivities were nearing a conclusion, Tractor Supply released a statement that put LGBTQ+ rights proponents on alert. With that move, Tractor Supply became the first domino to fall as companies began pulling out of the Corporate Equality Index. For Tractor Supply and some others, it marked a staunch turn in policy. For former Tractor Supply customer Ashe Taylor-Austin, the retailer’s announcement pushed them to look elsewhere when purchasing supplies for their horse. “When we got the news about Tractor Supply, I immediately started shopping around,” said Taylor-Austin, who switched to buying from a small business.
