"They are just not informed", "they are stupid", etc. If the media is partisan or biased, the situation reverses, and now the Harris voters are living in some media bubble with their own cnns, reddits and other friendly outposts, and then scratching their heads at the outcome in the end -- "How could this possibly be? All our polls were predicting a win. Maybe if we had 35 indictments instead of 34, that would have tipped the balance, for sure".
