This does “feel” better than 2016. Having said that, I have a few concerns in no particular order.
1) Are there any significant crossover support for Dems from Reps? Doubtful I presume.
2) I think it was you Methos8 who mentioned the Indies generally break the way their counties do - that makes sense. Do we have any empiric evidence of this? This does generally make sense.
3) My main “real” remaining concern regards cannibalization - how much is truly occurring (that I don’t know) but I imagine that works for both parties.
4) On this day in 2016 is when our lead evaporated - to be ahead tomorrow by about the same amount as we are today is quite an accomplishment. This wouldn’t be a concern of course just an appreciation of how far we’ve come in two years.

“Ron DeSantis just said on Rush that a far lower percentage of GOP early voters have been “supervoters” (people who would have voted anyway) than among the Dems. A far higher % of GOP early voters are new voters—likely Trump voters who don’t usually vote in midterms.”
