The people will speak in a loud and resounding voice, no more DRUMPF!!
Go #TeamJoe #TeamKamala!!!!
This is just another example of why you and others put too much into the polls: You are quoting a polls taken a few days ago and yet there are new polls that show how well Trump is doing in so many states. These polls are changing hourly now, not just daily!!!!

The most important aspect of polling is following trends. Exact numbers are sketchy but the margin of error gives a range. You would always rather be the person heading up instead of down. In 2016 the polls showed Trump closing late- and he did. Even then they had Hillary's percent of support correct.

For all of you Democrats are cheering that Biden will win, you might want to hold off on your vine. Remember that Hillary had similar lead in around the same time in '16 and she still lost. Also remember we do not elect using national numbers so it's irrelevant. Instead look at each individual states and those states that count, Biden is not doing as great as Hillary was doing in '16 at this time.

Biden's current lead in the RCP average is 4-8 points HIGHER than the range it stayed in for much of the last 6 months of the election in 2016, and a little over 2 points larger now than Clinton's high point. Same with 538. Also, while it will obviously be determined by EV, you get to a point where if you lose by a certain amount nationally the states simply aren't going to be there. Trump isn't going to lose by 8-10 nationally and have any chance to win any of Florida, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Michigan, etc
