But N. Carolina is very much in play for Biden which would be HUGE.

That's about all that's major ATM.

Polling is off significantly. Biden may still win but it is going to be CLOSE. No blowouts.

Lock him up.

I’m not saying we can’t win, but the polls showing Biden up are off by several points already. It is going to be MUCH closer than the polls predicted.

You can watch this needle move if you have the stomach for it.

NC has moved from +1 for Biden to +1.3 for Trump and creeping that way. They’re just calculating the number of votes that have come in vs the number of votes that they’re expecting to come in.

it is going about as expected. The winner will have 270-285 EV and it is still in doubt who that will be.

If you looked at only the positive projections, dismissed anything you didn't like and derided polls as the media desire to have a 'horse race'- then it is quite awful.
