They've adjusted their models accordingly. It will be interesting to see if next week's results prove their adjusted models to be more accurate. No doubt they're overlooking one or more other elements this time around, but to whose benefit?

      We could end with a President Harris sooner than anyone thought:

              Yep. What a horrible candidate. Entitled, smug, condescending, ...

              Her unfavorable rating was worse than trump's. That's quite a feat.

                      You have described pretty much every political candidate for at least the last 50 years.

                        I don't think any presidential candidates before 2016 were.

                          Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton head into the final hours of the 2016 presidential campaign with the worst election-eve images of any major-party presidential candidates Gallup has measured back to 1956.
                          Both candidates' highly unfavorable ratings far outpace any Gallup has recorded before for a major-party presidential nominee, with the next-highest being Republican Barry Goldwater's 26% score in 1964. Even the former Alabama governor and proponent of racial segregation, George Wallace, who ran for president as a third-party candidate in 1968, earned a lower high unfavorability score that year (32%) than the 2016 candidates do today.

                              Yep. It took a very special candidate to lose to the biggest clown ever to win a major party nomination. The dems found that special candidate.

                                Don't forget hubris. Taking for granted a few rust belt states made it even worse, when just a little attention could have flipped some of those narrow Trump wins.

                                Ugh. Although she would have been a better president, I never want to hear about the Clintons again. Just go away.
