INSIDER ADVANTAGE 8/29-8/31 800LV, D+2 (36D/30I/34R, Inferred Electorate) Harris 46.5, Trump 47.9 X  
  Party Vote: D's 90-4 Harris, I's 49-40 Trump, R's 93-6 Trump. The party distribution was not provided, so I inferred it from the party vote. It looks reasonable. Included. Harris 46.5, Trump 47.9   x

FOX NEWS 8/23-8/26 720LV, 39D/27I/34R Harris 50, Trump 48 x  
Political Ref's Take *See note below Harris 43.7, Trump 43.7   x
*This is a registered voter poll, so unlikely voters are included. 16% of the included registered voter sample are self-described unlikely voters ("somewhat" or "not at all" likely to vote). The party ID is 44D/15I/41R. Broken down further it is strong partisan 36D/34R and leaners break down as (8D/15I/7R). I's vote 47-33 Trump but somehow Trump trails in the overall. Weighting is questionable. White no college degree votes 51-42 Trump. White college degree votes 52-44 Harris. Total college degree 51-44 Harris. Total no college degree 47-46 Trump. The vote breaks down as D's 93-3 Harris, I's 47-33 Trump, R's 92-4 Trump. Reallocating the party vote to the more likely 41D/12I/40R, Harrris receives 43.7 to Trump's 43.7.
NYT/Sienna 8/12-8/15 677LV, 28D/33I/28R, Harris 47, Trump 48 X  
Political Ref's Take The even party distribution is close to 2020 results. Education of 65% No College Degree, 35% College Degree are also close to the exit poll. The results are in line with other polls, no adjustment necessary. Included. Harris 47, Trump 48   x
RASMUSSEN REPORTS 8/13-8/18 980LV, 35D/31I/34R Harris 46, Trump 48 x  
Political Ref's Take *See Note Below Harris 45.8, Trump 48.1   x
*The 2020 vote is 47 Biden 47 Trump, 2 points off the actual 50-48 Biden result. This is explainable by some Biden voters switching and it's consistent with other polling. This is a very educated polling sample, 45% with a college degree, which is 13% higher than 2020. This definitely helps Harris, so it warrents a one point adjustment in party ID to 34D/32I/34R. Parties voted D's 83-15 Harris, I's 42-42 tie and R's 87-12 Trump. Reallocating to the more likely turnout, Harris 45.8 to Trump 48.1
 
CURRENT TURNOUT ASSUMPTION: 35D/30I/35R, Republicans have gained in the registration battle, but union turnout promises to be strong again, but who knows which way they vote? It's very difficult to determine likely Nevada turnout. Best to stay with the last turnout in 2020.
 
2020 EXIT POLL - 35D/30I/35R without leaners (PDF) without leaners (PDF); Demo - White 65%, Black 7%, Hispanic/Latino 17%, Asian 5%; Age - 18-29(15%), 30-44(24%), 45-64(30%), 65<(30%). College Graduate 32%, No College Degree 68%. Biden won college grads 53-44. Trump won no degree 50-48.
