Ari lied, HRC NEVER had a lead like Biden has. Question is why did he lie? beachbumbob Oct 2020 #23

As I Noted Above, HRC *VERY BRIEFLY* Had That Lead smb Oct 2020 #33

I saw swing state polls the other day... ClusterFreak Oct 2020 #24

I distincly remember seeing Steve Kornaki doing a segment comparing Hillary and Bidens polling leads Dream Girl Oct 2020 #25

He showed RCP averages for today which was right after Access Hollywood tapes and before Comey. uponit7771 Oct 2020 #40

Absolutely false- 2016: HRC +4.3% 2020: Biden +9.6% Fiendish Thingy Oct 2020 #28

I don't recall BainsBane Oct 2020 #29

So, with all the evidence to the contrary of the assertions in your OP, are you still scared? Nt Fiendish Thingy Oct 2020 #30

Virtually all of the evidence to the contrary provided Ms. Toad Oct 2020 #34

A 10% margin in the pop vote gives 99.9% odds of EC win; HRC had 2-3% which 50% odds Fiendish Thingy Oct 2020 #43

You cannot predict the votes in key states by the margin in the popular vote. Ms. Toad Oct 2020 #48

Quinnipiac poll of PA Oct 7: Biden +13%, 2.8%MOE Fiendish Thingy Oct 2020 #54

That data is at least responsive to the concern raised in the OP, Ms. Toad Oct 2020 #58

Of course he is still vulnerable. Ms. Toad Oct 2020 #31

HA! No she wasn't! OhZone Oct 2020 #35

Those are national numbers, the numbers Ari was touting were two swing states but it looks like it.. uponit7771 Oct 2020 #42

The national spread does not have a direct correlation Ms. Toad Oct 2020 #50

Why do you say that? BGBD Oct 2020 #64

National polls predict the popular vote, not the electoral vote. Ms. Toad Oct 2020 #65

It just doesn't work like that in practice. BGBD Oct 2020 #68

Unless you are basing it on state polls, it isn't a polling error - Ms. Toad Oct 2020 #70

And? BGBD Oct 2020 #72

But she lost based on STATE results, she did not lose the popular national vote. Ms. Toad Oct 2020 #73

Another key difference in the EC vs national polls spooky3 Oct 2020 #76

Agreed. Ms. Toad Oct 2020 #78

Thank YOU! smirkymonkey Oct 2020 #60

I stopped recording him. He is a jerk. He knows how helpisontheway Oct 2020 #36

I don't record him or Chris Hayes any more Dream Girl Oct 2020 #45

Ari's always been an annoying, too-clever-by-half, imp. He may pass oasis Oct 2020 #51

absolutely disagree, I really like him a lot nt Celerity Oct 2020 #77

What did you think of his interview of whacko Scott Adams (Dilbert)10/19? oasis Oct 2020 #80

Fair enough. nt oasis Oct 2020 #82
