Will voters turn out this Tuesday?
It seems that at least 2/3 of the news cycle is devoted to coronavirus. The demographic that does most poorly if infected are those >60-65. Having comorbidities can drag in a slightly younger, yet still aged, cohort into that risk pool. Its no secret that Biden polls disproportionately well with older folks.
Anyone concerned that proportion of voters may shift and significantly alter the margins on Tuesday the 17th?
