That show similar results in Wisconsin & Michigan. It's very close and we need to do everything humanly possible to assure that a sociopath fixated on revenge doesn't return to power. Even if Trump is rigging some of the polls, there are other reputable pollsters that indicate that it's alarmingly close.

I don't know if polls adequately forecast turnout and hopefully the prospect of Dump potentially winning will create unprecedented turnout against him. Whatever violent insurrection those assholes attempt (and they likely will), it's infinitely better than the alternative of their being declared winners.
