Harris has had larger and more enthusiastic crowds from the beginning and it has only gotten more pronounced as time has progressed. It's impossible to miss now. One would think she should be at least 5 points up in the polls.
I'm hoping for a pleasant surprise tomorrow night.
It's likely just wishful thinking, but I wonder how many of these polls are facing the same issue that they did in '16. Many people voting for Trump weren't, at that time, willing to admit they were going to vote that direction. It makes me think we may be seeing more of that, but with people, especially women, claiming Trump support but favoring Kamala in reality. Something along the lines of...
Wife (who's husband is within earshot): Why, of course we support Trump.
Wife (to husband): Of course I'm voting for Trump, Honey
Wife (in the poll booth): Yep. Voting for that misogynistic asshole to get fucked!
That's my assessment as well. Women may well be sandbagging the pollsters.
