I only have gender statistics for six states, but if this is what is happening elsewhere -- and the polling is right about the big gender gap -- Trump is going to need the world's largest sausage party on Election Day election.lab.ufl.edu/early-vote/2...

If NYT/Siena is making you panic, take note that Harris is +12 among women and age 18-29, but NYT fiddles with the numbers to suppress them.

NYT assumed electorate:
52% women
13% age 18-29

Actual electorate 2008, 2012, 2016, 2020:
54-55% women
15-16% age 18-29
