When in the last 100 years has the the election had more than 2% difference in the national lead and the electoral college not going to the winner (hint: never). And even though EV are what matters, the direction of states WILL MIRROR national polls. It is not possible for Trump to be up 5 in florida and down 10% nationally (bloomberg, cbs, etc) when we lost Florida by 1-3% in the last two elections and only lost nationally by 4% or win Nevada where we lost the last 2 elections.

There are always outlier polls. Personally I discard the widest and narrowest and average the rest.
