Good point. Polls are now worthless. The ballgame is actually happening and we have real time data from the swing state of Florida that helps to paint a picture of what is actually going on.
It's way early but the picture is this in Florida: Republicans are turning out at 50% or more of the election day electorate. The predictions of an election day red wave appear to be materializing. The question now is one of total volume. If the rates continue then the Republicans will exceed 2016 margins on votes cast over the Democrats even taking into account the Democrat vote lead coming into today.
Is Florida a harbinger of other states? Possibly. It has been the focal point of campaigns for 30 years for a reason. Same for OH and now NC. They have demographics that are similar to other battleground states. Generally if FL, OH and NC are won by one party then other battleground states are likely to fall in line.
