I’s are going to break for Trump pretty heavy then, or FL will sink us.

My guess is that number just shot up for the Dems after this weekend.

It should have increased.

The big DEM gain on Sunday is a bit demoralizing. However, not a big issue really. If the polls were closed on Sunday, most of those DEM voters would have showed up on Tuesday. Just rearranging the chairs.

Not necessarily. 2% difference isn’t huge. And this data was for through Friday. Saturday and Sunday were huge Dem days and I suspect they cannibalized a large amount of their 2012 voters this weekend.
