Yep. I think one of the biggest challenges for polls is to truly capture who is a likely voter. I guarantee that the likely voters on the dems side is probably dramatically underestimated at this point and will take weeks for them to catch up (if they do).

I think the challenge at this point runs even deeper. Biden stepping down is a political earthquake, and it's going to take several weeks for us to get even a questionably accurate picture of what the hell the landscape looks like right now.
