At 70% votes counted, Biden was ~200k votes ahead. We're now at 84% votes counted and the lead has shrunk to ~93k votes. ABC News refuses to call it yet but Politico and various other news outlets have. | ||

But AZ staying blue is SUPER important to biden. If that flips his path is a lot more narrow | ||

I feel like they at least try to get representatives from both parties in. | ||

And there is no way it's a rejection vote of Biden, since last time it was Hillary who is wayyyy more controversial and unpopular. It's genuinely people who think that yeah, the guy is legit and does a good job. It's mind boggling. It could be a rejection of democrats though. | ||

No clue if it's the pollsters or the media reporting on it, but I work in data science, and when there is even the slightest chance people will misinterpret my conclusions, I always always always make damn sure the most prominent thing I explain is the error bars and what that means. That said, this is the second time in as many presidential elections that everybody reporting on polls has been wildly overestimating the democrats' position. I think they *really* need to rethink their methodologies, or if the methodology is sound, how they present their results. | ||
