Well, my theory is that what would have been an R polling mirage created by demographic change canceled out the D polling mirage that occurs when Trump is on the ballot.

Basically, the pollers underestimated just how much Georgia has changed, and so were polling an electorate to the right of the state, but when Trump is on the ballot, all states vote to the right of themselves.

It appears that a similar thing happened in Colorado.
