The same folks that had Joe up in these states had him up nationally and we can extrapolate SOME information from the 50 million votes already cast. Trump is actually up by nearly a million in the popular vote.

Yes, it’s early, but if Biden was going to win by anywhere near that much in the popular vote we would see it

We have enough information to say that the polls were off, just not enough to make meaningful conclusions about where and how much.
