2 Days out predictions for Electoral College

I will concede the fact that feelings ≠ data. Jim Messina is on MSNBC right now says the data is not backing up the pessimism for Harris.
He was the one conflicting the Heilimann message on NC the other day (they agree on AZ though)
 
Roe seemed throw a wrench into the polling business which already was wonky due to extreme polarization over the last decade.
 
I'm putting a reminder on my calendar for October 15, 2028 to send giant bottles of Xanax to all the liberals who post here.
No freaking kidding. I’m actually pretty stunned reading some of the posts this morning. I get that people are nervous, anxious, afraid, etc. but holy smokes.

A lot of the nervousness was coming from nycfan. She's a transactional lawyer. Being neurotic is part of her job description. The following hypothetical conversation is her job: [I have stylized for effect]

Client: Woo-hoo! When does our deal close?
Atty: We still have to button down issues X, Y and Z
Client: But we agreed on the important deal terms. What are the chances that this x y z bullshit amounts to anything?
Atty: Low
Client: Wrong answer. The answer should be zero
Atty: I'm working on it. It will be zero next week.

It's no wonder why she's sensitive to small changes in forecast.

Yeah. I agree. I am a big fan of hers but I definitely think she has contributed to at least a portion of the doom and gloom sentiment on this board. It’s not at all her fault, she is not responsible for the emotions of other grown adults, but I think lots of people take her lead given that she is our most prominent board member.
