Whats even more frustrating is recognizing the population difference in day of voters and mail in votes, expecting a "blue shift" as votes are counted, and then watching pundits chime in on Tuesday about surprising results.

As far as I can tell the most surprising result was Trump's popularity among Cuban Floridians.

Cubans are anti-Castro Republican. The young generation of pollsters forgot that Cubans aren't just "generic Hispanic".

Once Biden's team let Trump paint him as socialist I was not surprised to see the Cubanos go Trump (or the Venezuelans for the same reason) but I will be interested to see some of the breakdowns of the Puerto Rican vote in FL and some of the Central American Latino vote in Texas; I am betting there is going to be a reasonably large gender difference in some of those groups.
