There are definitely reasons to believe the polls are off. Democrats have overperformed in every election since 2016, both in general and special elections. Biden himself got nearly 90% of the Black vote in 2020, and there is no reason to believe that there has been a significant shift towards Trump since then. What has really changed? Trump and his party have only gotten more overtly racist and gross.

All of those margins seems suspiciously high for Trump. The only one that could be reasonable is women just because white women vote for Trump, but Black and young voters, IMO, will not vote for Trump to those margins.
