Depend on the voters getting out or mailing in their votes. Then the accurate counting of said votes.

So . . . I love the good news but we still have to act as if Biden were 10-15 pts behind and keep a watchful eye out for any high-jinks. Because there are 90 days until the election, an eternity in politics and certainly in the Age of Trumplandia.
