Gotta take the entire polling data that's been presented to this point. Support for Gillum has been consistent, but Nelson and Scott have been exchanging leads all year.
True but not all polls are created equal. Some polls are garbage. Quinnipiac is a very credible pollster.

It got the VA gubernatorial race in 2017 right on the money.

Going to be a bit of a usual negative nancy but i'm being sincere. The early voting numbers are looking great, but maybe Presidential elections aren't good measures to compare this to, but I do remember in 2016 in a lot of places, Democrats were killing early voting but general election day the total numbers seemed to even out that heavy Democratic advantage.

You've gotta be careful about cross comparing polls for races in different states. State experts should be given the edge.

Q poll has been consistent about Nelson's lead, but as I was pointing out with the original tweet Nelson winning is still a possibility despite Gillum's victory already being written into history.

And that is simply because Nelson has been running an uninspiring campaign.

I digress though because we both want Nelson to win

@Call Me James check out this page bro...you're going to want to make this your homepage for the next 3 weeks lol

This is my 4th election cycle following the numbers for this blog and it's really hard to draw any serious conclusions because a lot of Democrats vote Republican, especially in congressional races. The only real positive sign is Democrats have been ahead in mail ballots requested and returned. That's shocking as it is usually won by Republicans.
