Masha Gessen on Chris Hayes now: while national polls look great for Biden (and we all know, they don't really matter..), the electoral college not so much.
Anyone have info to fill this in?

It looks good. Could look better. Especially with the national polls. But it's not bad - definitely stronger than Hillary four years ago.

Trump does have a built in EC advantage, but the polls are showing hes losing.
