Biden strength is from traditionally republican seniors and independent votes. So you can't know how many republican crossover from the number or how the independent vote will break out until official results are out. So for now, democratic votes (especially in Dade) is a bit behind. But once again, you don't know how the actual break out of the votes based on early votes from voter registration numbers.

I know Joe can win without FL, but, just once, I'd like this idiot state to get it right.

We are underperforming (WRT votes cast already) in M-D, but it seems like we're overperforming in Broward.

So the concern has been that Miami-Dade is not turning out in high enough numbers.

The poll is a poll and not related.

Polls are people's preference (assuming they actually vote).

No poll is corrected for lower than expected mail in ballot counts by county.
