Memerson strikes back

[Buzz]

Seems in line with where I see this ending... 5-6 points

[Skill and Chance]

This is actually the best Biden has ever done in this poll.  First Emerson result I would be fully confident of a Biden EC win with.

[Ljube]

If Biden is up 5, the race is open.
Advantage Biden, but Trump has a chance.

This has Trump winning Indies by 6 and positive approval with Indies.

Junk this. May Emerson be lost this cycle and never come back.

[President Punxsutawney Phil]

this is a good poll for Joe Biden, given this is Emerson.

[Rand]

Solid D.

My view has been is that Emerson is not particularly R-biased, but rather just pathetically wrong at everything they do

[BudgieForce]

Emerson has been one of, if not Trump's best national pollster. They've regularly had his approval even or near even throughout his presidency. They had Trump leading nationally at least once this year. Pretty good poll for Biden.

I don't think Emerson can be called categorically and inherently R biased either. It just has been pretty bad for Biden the entire campaign.

Why is Emerson right and everyone else wrong?

I mean they aren’t exactly alone.  IBD, HarrisX,  RMG

All of those have been favorable to Trump all cycle.

[TC 25]

5 point race and Trump is very much in the game for the EC.

Is it really? Wow that's some nonsense.

[Person Man]

This is Biden’s best result in this poll

HarrisX is not a good poll as there are too many undecideds most of the time, and IBD has a severe R bias--it had Trump between +2 and +5 most of 2016 with the PV.

Not really familiar with RMG so can't say much.

If this forum can entertain post after post of Texas going for Biden (hardly impossible imo!), it should be able to entertain the possibility of a 5 point national race where Biden takes back WI-MI-PA and adds AZ for a fairly narrow electoral college win.

Yep. That's also plausible.
