      I agree. Also, as Nate points out, the gap is easy to misinterpret. These are probabilities of EC victories, not gaps in polling. 55-45 is closer than it seems. Neck and neck almost.

          @jon-nyc I meant to ask, where is he putting the odds of a 269 split?

            It’s not going to be a complete helix. My guess is you’ll see the each turn get smaller.

                That’s dropped since Biden dropped out. I seem to recall it being as high as 4-5%

                      Harris’ is +0.3

                        As you pointed out yourself, 53-46) in probability is a tossup.

                            I wish we could stop pretending that this is an election to decide on the best candidate for the country and start admitting that whoever's going to win is arbitrarily ahead in the polls on that particular day. It's not like anyone in the country whose financial future is tied to a particular candidate actually likes any of these people.

                              She's had 90%+ favorable publicity from every major broadcast media and every cable media, with the exception of FOX, for her entire candidacy. Trump has been 95% negative.

                              She ought to be better than than that.

                                          Probably just changing weights as polls age.
