Yup. A lot of people forget that Trump finished about an average of six points better in every poll in those elections, which was enough to overtake Hilary but not Biden. Personally, I think the polls were all built for the paradigm that he broke, and they didn't account for the new rules he brought to the table ... like accounting for respondents that don't like pollsters, for just one example.They ALL had Hillary and Biden in 2016 and 2020 respectively up by much much more.
Meaning it's not going well.
Now, this is a different election, Harris doesn't have the baggage and age issues that Clinton and Biden did, and maybe the poll companies (whose livelihoods depend on figuring it out) figured it out, but on the other hand ... how much do you trust the polling companies?
Yes, anyone who thinks Harris has it all wrapped up now just doesn't get it.
