Don't trust the polls. Never trust the polls.
I remember on the day of the Brexit election, at the closing of the polls, they predicted that remain was 10 points ahead. Nigel Farage confirmed defeat twice
Then the ballots started to come in and by 2am, it looked very much like leave had actually aced it. Toon the entire government by surprise.
What happened? The silent majority lied at the polls and pretended to vote for remain when in reality they were going for leave.
Same with Trump. It had Hilary 3 points ahead at the closing of the ballot. Then the silent majority kicked into force and we saw how that ended up.
I'm predicting the same with Biden. Unless Trump royally screws up with the riots, the silent majority effect is going to kick into play again.
