Biden will likely reach Obama 2008 levels across New England.

I doubt he does quite as well as Obama 2008 in VT and RI, but I guess it’s possible. I really don’t see him reaching Obama levels in ME, though.

How much do you want to bet on whether Biden beats Obama 2008's percentage in at least one of the five non-Massachusetts New England states? (It's pretty clear that he will in Massachusetts if the polls are even close to accurate.) I'm not particularly invested in this specific question so let's keep it low-stakes--how about an avatar change for one week?

UMass-Amherst does, which is all that matters.

Now, now, I didn’t say I’d be surprised if Biden got close to/matched Obama in 2008 in CT and NH. Tongue

I’m not invested in it either, so avatar change for one week if Biden does better than Obama 2008 in one of VT/ME/RI (without CT/NH)?

Deal. Please message/remind me after the election because I tend to forget these things, especially when I end up on the losing side. Wink

Don't expect much polling error here. This is probably going to be one of the more accurate states, and this poll seems totally within reason.

If Biden truly does receive 64% here, he will have garnered the highest percentage of any Democrat in Massachusetts since Lyndon B. Johnson's 76% sweep here in 1964. Not even John Kerry in 2004 or Barack Obama in 2008 managed to reach that figure here.

Not surprised by these numbers given it is MA, but the margin probably means Biden is doing well in the New Hampshire suburbs of Boston as well.

MT Treasurer won. Biden won ME by 10 points (Obama +17), RI by 20 points (Obama +28), and VT by 33 points (Obama +37).

Yes, but in the context of a much smaller PV victory than most of us expected. I think most of us underestimated just how hard most of New England would snap back this time and am a lot less sure Maine will be one of the Republican party's easier targets next time.
