[Alben Barkley]

Biden will do best here for a Dem since 2008.

[Bootes Void]

Biden will crack 40% in WV. House Dems got 42% in 2018

[Ljube]

Biden will crack 40% in WV. House Dems got 42% in 2018

No, he won't. Not after his comments about fossil fuels.

Don't you realize that US is behind the 8 ball on renewable energy, due to our cruise liner industry that went bankrupt, the US will have built bullet trains which will lesson our need for carbons for airplanes. Which Asia already have

Yeah, WV has one of the least-educated populations in America so most voters there lack the mental capacity to understand that coal and oil are finite resources and that Biden is correct to say that we must transition away from them in the coming decades. Like most idiots, they’ll misinterpret what he said as being anti-oil, anti-coal, anti-natural gas, etc. instead of scientifically-based common sense.

Fracking killed the coal industry.

Who even is this pollster? Looks like they don't have a rating on 538. I don't think WV is going to swing 22 points to the left.

It's pretty elastic.

[South Dakota Democrat]

I think it's likely that WV will narrow compared to 2016, but keep in mind that polling in safe states tends to underestimate the dominant party.

Sure, but is it 22-point swing elastic? I doubt it, but we'll see, I could be wrong.

For WMOV
October 19-20
544 likely voters
MoE: 4.2%

Not sure/don't know 4%

[Stranger in a strange land]

I doubt it will swing 20 points to Biden, but as others have said, it is pretty eleastic, plus also I do kind of wonder if, since coal didn't come back under the most favorable president and regulatory environment imaginable, some voters and local leaders will finally bite the bullet and realize that it's well past time to adapt to life after coal.

Biden barely did better than Hillary Clinton, and Trump got about the same percentage as he did in 2016. Once again, polls underestimated Trump's support among WWC voters.

Ah but forum lurker missing Michigan by a few points makes him wrong.
