There were pollsters that called Florida correctly.

538 just wasn't one of them. But remember when everyone said it was the media interpreting the polls wrong!!!#!@#!@#@!

If Biden gets Pennsylvania and North Carolina I predict he’ll win by a slim margin.

So i think in the early polling alot of people lie or dont answer. Because at this point its looking like we have a 2016 situation all over again after weeks of hearing about how the election was basically called already that Biden was winning.
Exactly.

The people who viewed their vote in 2016 as a proverbial wrench to throw in the system, undoubtedly treat the polls as such.

When it comes to the debate on polling, its not that "they misread the data" its "the data is bull ####".

NC just went tilting Trump on NYT.

Just like 2016 as the needle swings slowly from left to right...

Weird. John King was just there for 5 mins and Biden is overperforming throughout the state. Looks promising in NC for Biden. well according to CNN

Looking better in North Carolina. Upshot has Trump by .6% vs 538 with Biden by 1.7%. A 2.7% polling error in Trumps favour correlated accords the country results in a relatively comfortable Biden win.

That would put Biden at 294 without Arizona and Ohio.

Times pointing toward Trump in NC.
Biden still has several paths to victory that don't include either of the above. Trump does not.
