Nate Silver calls Marist 'blue wall' polls 'reassuring' for Harris
Source: The Hill
Veteran pollster Nate Silver said Fridays Marist poll bodes well for Vice President Harriss campaign, with just days until the election.
Silver, the founder of ABCs 538, took to social media to share his opinion, suggesting the lead in the three blue wall states that went for former President Trump in 2016 and flipped back to President Biden in 2020 could be encouraging for Harris.
Reassuring polls for Harris in the sense that the race is likely to remain toss-up-ish, he posted on the social platform X. Unless the final NYT/Siena state polls all tilt in the same direction I guess.
The Marist poll found the vice president is leading Trump by 3 points in Michigan and 2 points in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, an increase from similar Marist polls released in September.

'Reassuring' doesn't mean much from Nate Silver.

When Harris wins this one decidedly, which she will, Nate Silver's reputation as a polling data genius should end his career and he can go back to gambling, which I hope he is better at than political guessing.
