Re: Trump looked like a loser (4.00 / 5)

All right. You were right, I was wrong.

You do have to admit I had solid reasons for being skeptical.

LA Times:

"Young people in Georgia have expanded their vote by 82% to more than 340,000."

If young Georgians follow the national 70/30 D/R split that right there almost erases Trump's 211,000 margin of victory and the increase in black vote should flip the state to Biden.

You see? All those shy Biden voters! :-)

Re: Trump looked like a loser (4.00 / 2)

Georgia, like Texas, has two things going for it:

The Kids Today and The Wine Moms.

But, unlike Texas, Georgia was only a 5-point kind of race four years ago. The swing needed isn't as large.

Again, gun-to-my-head, I'm still of the "Trump narrowly holds both" view, but it won't be at all shocking if Biden carries Georgia (and at this point Texas certainly isn't out of the question).

Not if you read the two polls today out of Florida.

Re: Who'd have thunk? (4.00 / 2)

No, just a dearth of polls from the high-quality crowd recently.

Biden +8-10 national but only 0-2 in Florida never made much sense to me.

Florida's pretty reliably about R+3 or R+4 vs the popular vote. I can imagine 5, maybe even 6, because at some point you run into a ceiling, I suspect, but prior to today the polling didn't make much sense to me.

So yeah, Marist and Monmouth are around what I'd figure.
