@GottaLaff @MuellerSheWrote shared on the Daily Beans podcast yesterday this article by Elie Mystal that is guaranteed to make you lose sleep.
Has Marc Elias commented on this anywhere?
That “Little Secret” Between Trump and Johnson? Here’s What It Could Mean.

Yes, the NOT-made for tv polls!
The polls that inform a competent campaign and assist a candidate to make the best use of all her resources. #KamalaHarris -
@bronakins @Jdnome @GottaLaff
Exactly. Actionable data, not the filler gamblers and hacks publish. -

It's actually been pretty obvious for a while. The legitimate polls have had her up 3 to 5 points AND it is pretty well understood that even these polling models were undersampling women, so add another couple points.

RETRACTED: [Elie Mystal is a clickbait artist. Believe Marc Elias. They've got this.]
Edit: Apologies, it was late. Should not have said this. The frustration comes from the desire to stay focused on winning the election, and not getting distracted by hypotheticals that have not materialized.

The main thing that could go wrong is some kind of magical Bro vote. But there is no evidence of that. It seems to be going the other way with lots of energized women and crossover Republicans.

Smugness carries a lot of inertia. Swifties aren't taking anything for granted, however. -

Smugness is a killer. We are mobilized, executing and running through the tape. The margin is super critical. No amount of win is enough.

Think she will show up Sunday in PA?

@mastodonmigration @PamelaBarroway @MuellerSheWrote Excuse me… .Elie Mystal is one smart cookie and a pal. You don’t have to agree with him, but he’s genuine, not a “click bait artist.” We’ve followed each other for years at the hellsite.
He’s worried sick about the US. And he knows his stuff.
I’ve asked Elias to address Elie’s post. Haven’t seen a reply.
And thank you @BlueWaver22.

@GottaLaff @mastodonmigration @PamelaBarroway @MuellerSheWrote @BlueWaver22 Agreed. Mystal is smart and principled. His concerns are important.

Apologies. It was late. Should not have said that. Retracted

@mastodonmigration @GottaLaff @PamelaBarroway @MuellerSheWrote @BlueWaver22 we’re all stressed out of our minds, I know I’ve been guilty of releasing that frustration in ways I regret later. I appreciate how you acknowledged and addressed it (we should all practice this more). FWIW I agree with Elie’s concerns and am very worried, but also have faith that Marc is aware, even if he’s not sharing details. I hope.

Again, apologies. Got that one wrong.
