    This feels like totally revisionism. The commentary here at the time was almost exactly the same as it is now.

    The difference is I had a big old red at this point on Trump in 2020. And the mail came in a lot later last time round.

    I should have been more clear, I meant more competitive than last time. He lost by 10%+ last time. I don't think anybody is suggesting he is going to win that state, but important as lots of states around there that are crucial.
