I think Biden does. That's my controversial take of the election.

RCP Biden+6.8
Actual Biden+7.5

Unless Trump personally finds the vaccine for COVID, and saves a baby from a burning building, no.

No idea. I think any answer here is a pure guess.

I do still think Trump has a built-in advantage. It’s just so embarrassing to admit to supporting him.

That’s because we’re only thinking about Trump supporters who live in places where 80% of their neighbours vote the same way. I would imagine it’s a bit different in swing state suburbs...

Why do online surveys and in person surveys show no difference. I also think Democratic voters will be skeptical of polls and turn out more than they would.

Trump supporters are not embarrassed by anything.

They are less embarrassed than a Corgi who scavenges the cat box or the bathroom trash that time of the month.

This election will ultimately hinge on whether the Democratic base actually votes or not. Beyond that,  the difference between a 278 and a 412 election is whether the republicans like NCY or whitesox will ultimately come home and hold their noses again.

FWIW, I didn’t “hold my nose” the first time. I voted Gary Johnson. Might have voted Hillary if I lived in a swing state.

Final RCP average: Biden +6

Final result: Trump +1 (as Putin openly rigs the election in Trump's favor)

Why would they lie in an anonymous poll?

Final RCP: Biden +8.5
Actual: Biden +9

Again, national polls were not off in 2016.

Absolute wild guessing (could change):

RCP on 11/03: Biden 50.4%, Trump 44.1% (Biden + 6.3%)
Result: Biden 51.9%, Trump 46.3% (Biden +5.6%) (Electoral votes: Biden 334, Trump 204; Biden +130)
