The Race Is More Stable Than We Thought

Nate Cohn says an anomaly in the USC-Dornsife tracking poll falsely suggested the presidential race showed signs of tightening.

“The poll now shows a fundamentally stable race, with Mr. Biden maintaining something like a 10-point lead, rather than a volatile race that has swung from Biden plus-13 to Biden plus-7 and back. With U.S.C. showing less change, an important point in the case for substantial tightening can be crossed off the list.”
