The @cityoftoronto and @johntory think homeless people are a bigger plague than COVID-19. Today they hit 500 Covid cases total in the 7500 person shelter system (5 deaths). Beds still aren’t all 2m apart and they gave encampment residents ONE HOUR notice before bulldozing today.

Nate Silver is wholly irresponsibly priming Democrats to refuse the results of the election again if there is, e.g. a small, normal shift in PA polling over the next few days and then a redux of the 2016 polling error. Totally gross.

If the polls aren't tightening since the debate—and with 62 million people having voted—we're sort of getting to the point where the only way Trump can win is with a major polling error, bigger than in 2016 (or if the election is stolen somehow).

"Design flaw" meaning it wasn't designed in such a way that the establishment candidate(s) can recover from the Nevada drubbing. Latina and Latino voters are going to decide the Democratic nominee in 2020. That's a wonderful thing after 4 years of Trump.

A big design flaw is having Super Tuesday (35% of all delegates!) so close to SC. If you had, say, Michigan next week as a buffer, or even just a 10-day window with a debate and time for campaigns to pick up signals from voters/donors/polls/etc, these dynamics would be different.

Four years ago I put together a narrow path to victory for Bernie Sanders after Super Tuesday. It was, in fact, VERY narrow. A ton easier this year to put together something realistic for catching up 75 delegates or so as opposed to over 200, as then.

Looks like four big, "Gold Standard" live caller polls have decided to just not put out a final poll: Monmouth (for sure) ABC/WaPo NPR/PBS/Marist Bloomberg/Selzer Also missing among usual giants: Pew AP-NORC And among regular live callers this cycle: Kaiser

Gotta say, it is a little disturbing that Toronto media just keeps repeating Toronto Police “weapons” charges against people from Lamport resistance without (almost) ever stopping to note that the weapons in question are literally all milk, water, and soup. #CupboardTerrorists

The idea that a few R-leaning polls are downweighting averages rather than more than half a dozen partisan hackers or completely unknown polling firms on the right side of this chart upweighting Biden's advantage is ... 😂😂🤣😆

Life, as they say, is beautiful! A+ pollster. Sanders clearly the most electable in *checks notes* yes, yes, only perhaps the very most important state for November.

I do think people overthink things some times. In an 800-person poll, the margin of error for the difference between candidates is ~7 points. And 1 in 20 polls will fall outside that margin of error, i.e. be more than 7 points away from the true number.

Optimistically, but not radically so, the gap between Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders when #SuperTuesday dust settles might be < 30 delegates. Depends on, in CA: A) Bloomberg becoming non-viable everywhere B) Sanders stretching lead to 15% when NPP count finishes in ~30 days
