Don’t Worry About Poll Bounces

For indispensable reporting on the coronavirus crisis and more, subscribe to Mother Jones’ newsletters.Just a quick reminder: presidential candidates often get poll bounces after their conventions. Sometimes it’s small, sometimes it’s a little better than that. But in virtually every case, the bounces go away a couple of weeks after both conventions have been held. So don’t get either excited or worried if either Trump or Biden go either up or down by the end of this week. By September it will all be gone.
