    Not so sure about that - it has still been WAY off.

    It depends how close it is, though. Picking a winner is one thing. Being “off” 4-5 points “across the board” would still be troublesome.

    Has it? I've got it about 2-3 points off, and that usually tightens when late-arriving ballots come in and are counted (they tend to be heavily Democratic). It could easily be under 2 points on average this year.

    But not in any state with the demographics of the Rust Belt.

    Looking at some county numbers in Arkansas, there are some with lower vote totals than 2016. More early voters, but a lot fewer day-of voters.

    It's still where we thought with Biden taking Arizona: Nevada, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Penn and the Nebraska single puts him right at 270

    It depends on what order the states count their early ballots versus their election day ballots.

    The states that had a blue mirage (early Biden lead that vanished) pre-count their early ballots and release them all immediately after polls close.

    The remaining states not only do not do that, I believe two of them actually don't start counting early ballots until the day-of ballots are done.
