In fact, the state polls are showing not just an astonishingly tight race, but also an improbably tight race. Imagine if pollsters in this world conducted 100 identical surveys of 863 randomly selected voters (that’s the average sample size of this year’s swing state polls). Actual swing state polls show far less variation than the benchmarks we would expect in a perfect polling world. Visualizing how the reported polling margins compare to what we would expect in a perfect polling world strongly suggests “herding” of swing state polling margins around the statewide polling averages. The pattern is especially pronounced in Pennsylvania, where a huge share of the public polls have showed a tied race.

Victims’ rights advocates point out that women who come forward with allegations of sexual assault are often not believed. They took frequent walks around agency grounds, and Bayatpour testified that Cuda often seemed to be going through a hard time. Cuda testified that he told her, “This is what I want to do to you,” and leaned in to kiss her.

Lionel Messi of Inter Miami competes during a friendly match between Inter Miami and Newell's Old Boys at DRV PNK Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on February 15, 2024. Major League Soccer scored several regular season records, including for attendance and sponsorship, thanks in part to international super star Lionel Messi — and corporate strategy. Nearly 11.5 million people attended MLS matches during the regular season — which ended this past weekend — the most in its history, according to data from the league. Each match during the 2024 season averaged 23,234 attendees, the highest ever for the regular season. Last year, MLS' Inter Miami signed Messi, which caused a surge in attendance, jersey and other product sales, and overall fanbase engagement.

But for few has its pursuit been more complicated than for the elite career women Byars strives to help. AdvertisementWhen she finally felt ready to go back to corporate life, she looked for a more sustainable way to pursue professional success. The issue with high-achieving women, Byars says, is they focus on meeting only two of those needs — security (money) and esteem — while neglecting the rest. When the clients cry, it's mostly related to the need Byars says is the trickiest to meet: esteem. But if you're a woman with four kids and a senior-level corporate job, is there really any amount of mindset shifting you can do to avoid burnout?

Hunter Biden’s legal case is, at its root, a story about the toxic, careless choices made by a drug addict.

Rebuilding the bridge, repairing the cargo ship that hit it and compensating companies for the disruption at one of the nation’s busiest ports may take years to resolve. “We’re not going to wait,” said Mr. Biden, who plans to visit Baltimore on Friday to survey the damage.
