The fine print -

'State polling averages are adjusted based on national trends, which means candidates’ averages can shift even in the absence of fresh state polls.'


He did that this morning, every State with an average and National average. Where you see the obvious dip for Biden, he did that himself. I keep track of the numbers and this morning everyone was hit. It's easy to see on the graph.The national trend? Iowa. He's in love with Iowa. Uses it for his prediction model too. So fuck 538. IMHO he's trying to drive a narrative.

He drank the small and white Kool Aid.

He even took Biden out of the lead in the next state, Nevada. Last latest Biden +4.2%. Now Bernie +4.2.% Hilarious.





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