If he wins, when it comes time for the Inauguration, it should be Harris that takes the oath of office, as Biden won't be able to remember the lines and won't actually be running the office. He'll just go to the White House basement, while Harris sits behind the desk in the Oval Office and her Marxist puppet masters pull the strings.
However, just to remind you, Clinton was, by the polls, double digits ahead of Trump and everyone laughed when they were told that he could win, even as the 2016 election night wore on.
The only thing that matters is that the elections are actually free and fair on "election night."
And of course, it's not who wins the popular votes, it's the Electoral College that actually determines who in the election is president.

Polls are not done by working people, polls are done by the rich. they use them to find out what we are thinking & then use them to tell us what we want to hear, & then they just do what ever they want.

Like I said... I'm happy that polls show Biden ahead. Makes more and more Americans who while enjoying their outside dining
are harassed by Democrat supported "protestors" like this!
Way to encourage more Americans to vote for Trump...behind the closed voting booth curtain!

What CloudResearch Found

• 11.7% of Republicans say they would not report their true opinions about their preferred presidential candidate on telephone polls.
• In contrast, just 5.4% of Democrats say they’d be reluctant to share their true voting intentions — roughly half the number of Republicans reluctant to tell the truth on phone polls.
• 10.5% of Independents fell into the “shy voter” category, just a percentage point lower than how Republicans react to phone polls.

The ‘shy Trump voter’ was a common topic of poll analysts following the 2016 presidential upset – but do they exist? New research helps shed light on polling accuracy and honesty.

And have you checked to see if there are any controls in place for this?

Citing one figure is meaningless - all polls are going to over or under sample groups by the very nature of how polls are conducted - you cannot get a perfect cross section. The real work in polling is putting the raw data through adjustments to come up with something accurate.

They were wrong in 2016 - by a lot. They were spot on in 2018. Placing your hopes in the idea that pollsters who are paid to be ACCURATE, not partisan, are incorrect is not intelligent. It is not the polls that skew the data - it is the agencies that report on the polling data as they are paid to deliver a message that attracts viewers. Pollsters are paid to be accurate.

There was no presidential election in 2018.
I'd suggest you read this link as it explains the foibles of believing polling data especially after you look at the following web site
that tracks polling organization.

This site tracks polling services...https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/pollster-ratings/

Out of the total 452 polling services 214 Democrat leaning 187 GOP and 51 NO LEANing.
So even a poll of polling services shows MORE Democrat leaning pollsters than GOP!
