Another polling bonanza today (some of which are discussed above) and a mix of results that if you’re Biden might give you comfort in some swing states while giving you heartburn in a few others.

So if you’re Biden you like that there were not one but TWO polls in Wisconsin showing Biden up 8 points. You might temper that reaction when you realize one of those two is from a British pollster that (frankly) I had not heard of until today. And then another poll (from Democratic pollster PPP) conforms that Texas is very, very, close.

On the “bad” side there is a Marist poll showing Biden and Trump tied (48-48) in Florida. Two other polls (one from that British pollster and another from a Democratic-affiliated firm) show Biden with small leads in Florida within the margin of error.

And then the “middling”. GOP pollster Susquehanna continues to show a tight race in Pennsylvania. Other pollsters have Biden leads in the low single digits in PA as well as Michigan and Arizona. On the other hand, Trump being up only 5 in Missouri is a bad sign for him.

I guess one way to look at it is if you are looking for a narrative you can find it today....
