13. Your state isn't the only one that exists...

There are plenty of states that have much more detailed breakdown of early voting and there are many election experts much more knowledgeable than you or me or the pollsters that damn near can predict who will win their state by the time the early vote is up (Ralston in Nevada immediately comes to mind).

Pennsylvania is another state that has incredibly detailed and useful early voting information that tells you more than any pollster's meaningless poll ever could: https://election.lab.ufl.edu/early-vote/2024-early-voting/2024-general-election-early-vote-pennsylvania/
