The (artist formerly known as the) gold standard hath spoken.

They underesimated Northam’s margin by like 8 points. If the same error occurs again, then that’s enough for a Jones win. Again, Jones is only a single polling error away from a victory.

And they also thought Trump was going to win NV and NH while losing WI.

Can't blame them. Two <1% margins missed? Eh.

Trafalgar has spoken. Moore has won.

Uh, as stated above, they missed VA badly.
