Biden campaign manager: Race is 'far closer' than experts say
The Hill, Oct 15, 2020

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s campaign manager, Jen O’Malley Dillon, says the race against President Trump is “far closer” than conventional wisdom suggests.

Despite polls showing the former vice president with a double-digit lead over Trump nationally and smaller but consistent leads in battleground states, Dillon warned over Twitter on Wednesday night that the contest is “a lot closer.”

“Early voting is already underway in many states,” Dillon said. “Millions of voters have already cast their ballots. But there is still a long way to go in this campaign, and we think this race is far closer than folks on this website [Twitter] think. Like a lot closer.”

Translation:
“ We're losing!  Vote again and again! Once is NEVER ENOUGH!”

This is becoming the pattern - polls showing the republican being blown out in months leading up to the election to suppress donations and enthusiasm, then the race tightening in the final weeks to gin up 'rat urgency and maintain pollster credibility. Too cute by half.

Anyone who thinks these polling organizations are exempt from the same forces who've bought most of the the media and internet is kidding themself. Polls are too important and the stakes are too high.
