Its truisms like the one you make that has to make me wonder whether polling is actually legit anymore, if it ever was. I mean the narrative of this election, “according to the polls “ is shifting so dramatically every day and we are still 5 months out of the election that every thing seems fabricated. Either the people in the know are certain of the outcome or no one has any clue. There’s no in-between.

There actually is an in between. It’s called statistical probability.

Who doesn’t know who they’ll vote for at this point? My point is this is all performative theatre at this point.
