16. Belief in the certainty of polls is what too many on the Left had in WI, MI, and PA.

They were convinced that Clinton would win so that freed them either not to vote for either her or Trump because they bought the Big Lie that both were the same (propaganda is how the Russians really swayed the election) or it made it ok for them to vote 3rd party like for Jill Stein who here in Wisconsin received more votes than Trump's margin of victory.

Until the horses leave the starting gate, none of them are in the lead. It's just the odds before the race showing who is the likely winner and then down the line.

Yeah, forget the polls, just vote.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
