Lots of good data and analysis in this article. A few snippets:

"...





Again, this perception is likely to be stronger among Trump-supporting graduates than Trump voters with lower education levels, who are less likely to circulate in politically-correct social environments. Research confirms that highly-educated white liberals have the most skewed perceptions of the actual views of Trump supporters, in part because their social circles tend to be politically homogeneous. The problem is worst among those most attentive to politics...."<In other words if you are an educated liberal and posting on here, you are basically clueless>


"...According to a Pew survey on October 9, Trump was leading Biden by 21 points among white non-graduates but trailing him by 26 points among white graduates. Likewise, a Politico/ABC poll on October 11 found that ‘Trump leads by 26 points among white voters without four-year college degrees, but Biden holds a 31-point lead with white college graduates.’

The exit polls, however, show that Trump ran even among white college graduates 49-49, and even had an edge among white female graduates of 50-49! This puts pre-election surveys out by a whopping 26-31 points among white graduates. By contrast, among whites without degrees, the actual tilt in the election was 64-35, a 29-point gap, which the polls basically got right...."

I dont see Republican news castors and Comedians crying and saying the world is coming to an end do you?
I'm along the lines of hoping Biden doesn't continue Obama's insane policies of bringing destruction to places like Libya and regime change in Syria

I saw a Cheddar video on the topic of why polsters got 2020 wrong and it makes sense. They said it was likely a mix of high turnout and people not answering calls from polsters due to unknown numbers. They said there was just no proof of the shy Trump voter since most Trump voters have their signs in the yard.
