In 2016 we had solid predictions at this hour.
First Hillary that went wrong.
I went outside for five minutes to buy fags and when I returned it was Trump and became certainty after another half hour.

When you say 'fags' you mean cigarettes, yes ?

Look here is how it works:
You have in your computer the results of 2020 from the exact polling stations that report and you calculate the swing.
It's simple.
