People are just bad at thinking probabilistically. If a pollster was saying Harris had a 48% of winning a few days ago and now says she has a 52% chance, that doesn't mean they were predicting a Trump win before and a Harris win now. These are both coin flip odds. I personally think Harris is going to win but it ain't over.
