It's possible! That's why Trump has a 12% chance of winning and not zero. But there's no particular reason to *expect* that as opposed to, say, a polling miss that favors Biden instead. — PolitiTweet.org

There are a lot of, IMO, fairly inconsequential arguments about how Biden's current standing in the polls compares to Clinton's at this point in 2016. If, as in 2016, there's a 3-point swing toward Trump in the closing days *and* a 3-point error in Trump's favor it'll be close! — PolitiTweet.org

Biden's lead doesn't magically go from "safe" to "unsafe" based on some ad hoc comparison to 2016. This all exists along a probabilistic spectrum. And that cuts in both directions. Even if Biden's position is stronger (it is) there could be a *larger* polling error than in 2016. — PolitiTweet.org
