RCP's averages are extremely subject to who happens to have polled the state recently, which is often the spammier, lower-quality pollsters, and that's been especially true recently with live-caller polls not having been terribly active in the states over the past 2 weeks. — PolitiTweet.org

Folks, Biden's lead didn't shrink from 7.3 points to 3.6 points in PA in a week (as per RCP) at the same time it was steady or slightly growing nationally. This is why you need poll averages that take a longer time horizon and/or adjust for house effects. https://t.co/wKbW02AGO5 https://t.co/daWEKcLlAm — PolitiTweet.org

A comparatively good morning of polls for Trump, although it says something about the state of play when you see a poll showing him 9 points behind nationally and say to yourself "hey, not bad!". https://t.co/de6e1opDuN — PolitiTweet.org

Like, if this is what's coming out of Trump these days, it's not clear that Stepien wants him debating, especially if he could also impact downballot races. https://t.co/v192EZ8F7o — PolitiTweet.org

Trump just debuted a new attack line against Biden: “He wants to listen to Dr. Fauci.”

Unless Stepien thinks Trump would be so bad that debating would lower his comeback odds, even though Trump generally wants high-variance strategies. It's not crazy: Trump historically loses ground following debates and his messaging has been even more erratic than usual lately. — PolitiTweet.org

There's no sign of tightening here, in other words. On average these polls (not a particularly good group for Biden) show Biden ahead by 9 points, exactly the same as before the NY Post story last Wednesday. — PolitiTweet.org

5 national polls were in the field this weekend. Here's what they say compared to the last edition of the poll before the Hunter Biden story/"story" broke. RMG: Biden +8 now/+8 before SurveyMonkey: +8/+6 TIPP: Biden +5.5/+8 USC: +12.5/+13 YouGov: +11/+10 https://t.co/cy51vc5isJ — PolitiTweet.org

Why Trump could win: there's still some time left, tipping-point state polls are closer than national polls, sometimes polls are wrong (though they'd need to be more than a little wrong this year), and mail voting and court disputes create some additional uncertainties. — PolitiTweet.org

One tough balance to strike is that particularly theories for why Trump will win are often poorly argued and full of wishful thinking and/or cherry-picking, and so it's easy to want to rebut the particulars. And yet, Trump still does have a nontrivial chance, per our model. — PolitiTweet.org

Loosely speaking, I think it means they're working backwards, i.e. they know what result they want then engineer their sample, etc. to get there. The National Review article I linked earlier makes it clear they have lots of degrees of freedom in how they construct their sample. https://t.co/cC34RX4e9k — PolitiTweet.org

@CahnEmily We re-examined some things after Trump's primary win in 2016 and the 2016/2020 version of our model tends to be a bit more conservative than our 2008/2012 version. So the 2012 version of our model would likely be more confident in Biden than what we're showing now. — PolitiTweet.org

@CahnEmily National polls were tighter in 2012, but I don't actually think that swing state polls were, and there were very few undecideds which made Obama's leads safer. — PolitiTweet.org
