Come on, man. There are a number of outcomes that might be plausible from next week’s election. None of them include Joe Biden winning Wisconsin by seventeen points, two more than Barack Obama’s margin in 2008. Yet that’s what the Washington Post and ABC News finds as its polling finale in the state, along with a somewhat more reasonable seven-point Biden lead in Michigan:

Former vice president Joe Biden continues to outpace President Trump in two crucial Midwest battlegrounds, currently holding a slight lead over the president in Michigan while showing a much more substantial advantage in Wisconsin, according to a pair of Washington Post-ABC News polls.

The surveys show Biden narrowly ahead of Trump among likely voters in Michigan by 51 percent to 44 percent, with Libertarian Party nominee Jo Jorgensen at 3 percent. In Wisconsin, likely voters favor Biden by 57 percent to 40 percent, with Jorgensen at 2 percent. Among registered voters, Biden’s edge in Michigan is five points, while he leads by 17 points in Wisconsin.

Could Biden have a lead, even a substantial lead, in Wisconsin? Sure; unlike four years ago, Democrats and their nominee aren’t ignoring the state. Neither is Trump, whose ground game has always had the state as one of its top targets.
