These are just polls, so vote!

Hopefully these trends will inspire people in states that have been consistently red that a flip this election is possible!

    That’s very hopeful. A five-point spread can be overcome. And I’m still wondering what the polling error will be this year. For the last few years, Democrats have handily out-performed the polls, and it’s not like people under 50 are getting easier to poll.

    But don’t get complacent. It’s possible the polls this year are over-correcting for that. We won’t know for sure until the election is over.

      Not only that. You may need a quite healthy margin to overcome the various voter suppression and other plans the Rs have in place to steal the election. A Texas sized margin might do.
