    "Biden supporters who are extremely likely to vote drops 25 pts if virus is hitting so hard in Nov. as to close restaurants... The drop-off would just be 16 points among Trump supporters, that puts Biden’s lead at just 3 points over the president." https://www.foxnews.com/politics/fox-news-poll-biden-holds-lead-over-trump-as-coronavirus-concerns-grip-nation …

        This is something where having Democratic Governors who will fight for universal mail-in ballots in PA, Michigan, and Wisconsin is crucial.

        I mean... they go from extremely likely to very likely? This seems like grasping for drama. However, the pandemic is an unknown factor on the election

        So, Biden loses because his supporters can’t get food at a restaurant? I don’t understand this point about a worsening pandemic helping Trump? How? As my kid says, “What the?”pic.twitter.com/POcPQe7nz8

        This is lunacy and it contradicts every poll we’ve seen after June 1. So huge unemployment HELPS incumbents win re-election? 🤷‍♂️

        No. This statistic is incorrect. I simply don’t believe that if the pandemic is raging hard in November with more unemployment & more mass death that the voters will suddenly decide that they want 4 more years of Trump’s dumpster fire. Not. Going. To. Happen.

        That's not quite what the article is saying, though. The point is that these Biden voters would be somewhat less likely to go to the polling stations in the midst of a pandemic. (The poll may still be incorrect, of course. FOX does not have a sterling record.)

        This feels like a very hard thing to poll, bc (pending more lawsuits) nearly every swing state voter is going to have a vote-by-mail option. Texas is now the one quasi-competitive state where you need an excuse for a mail ballot. https://twitter.com/ianbassin/status/1284860886054694915 …
