posted yesterday which indicated a much closer margin

Regardless, the stakes are too high, and we must get the vote out, and not assume anything

You can see that by the Clinton-Trump race. It is virtually impossible to win the popular vote by 9 points and lose the Electoral College vote.

But I'm not taking anything for granted.

Biden could win by 20,000,000 votes and still "lose" the rigged electoral College.

I trust nothing anymore.

Not surprising. Trump may have fewer voters but they are mostly locked in.

Knowing that super voter Republicans would vote for him, he appealed to people who never vote, got them to the polls and won.

He doesn’t care that he’s down by 9.

Some people in that 50% for Biden are probably lying out of embarrassment. They’ll vote for Trump in the secrecy of the ballot booth.

The low 40's in these head to head match ups? That's actually way more telling than what Biden's numbers are.
