RCP MAP 10/31 AM

That's down 25 EV from 2 days ago. But... These are all very close, so who knows, but it takes away some margin if it holds.

Hopefully, the polling has a similar Dem bias that it had in 2020 (polling vs actual). Subtract out that bias and it puts Trump ahead in several of these swing states.

As it has been pointed out, the WI shift is due to a CNN +6, which is a massive outlier.

No one is even close to that degree of spread.

CNN came through for Harris in that ridiculous +6 Harris poll in WI.

It seems that it will be PA or bust for both candidates.

If you want to feel better, go look at the outliers for Harris in Michigan that moved the number to Harris' column - Susquehanna and Quinnipiac.

Now go look at their polling in Pennsylvania.

I would suggest to stop looking at polling this late, as was suggested by a professional pollster, and look at turnout analytics.

Has Trump ever been favored prior to election day in either 2020 or 2016?

seems like Hillary and Biden were both favored except for a small number of pollsters.

Yep most likely whoever takes Penn is president and the polling is a complete toss up there.

It's always been PA. The winner of that state wins the presidency.

Is that Michigan poll that had Trump down 11 still factored in?

Thanks all. MI, WI are close, so it only takes one poll to shift it in their 'no toss ups'. And some of those do look to be outliers.

No, that was from 7/24-28, their current aggregate only goes back to 10/2-8,
