Greenfield leads 49-45. Does anyone know why this pollster has more generous number for downballot democrats?

Because the senate is more competative. Republican pollsters are more likely to have Rs doing better down ballot while that is flipped on it's head if you use D pollsters

Selzer also had Greenfield outperforming Biden.

Yep, if Iowa is close then Greenfield has a very good chance.

I wasnt referring to just Iowa, but to all the other states this pollster has polled

[VARep]

My guess is she overperforms Biden by 1-2%, but nothing more (I hope).

[Progressive Pessimist]

I wish Biden were leading, but this still adds up well with the rest of their polls and the indication of a pretty decent national Biden win.

Tossup.

It's simple.  Democrats thought they would have a 35-40 point lead with early votes in Iowa, and now it looks like they will only have a 20 point lead going into election day.   Selzer had Biden leading Trump with early voters by 23%, and then showed Trump getting that huge turnout on election day that every other pollster had been showing.   Iowa looks like a lean/safe Trump state.
