or at least that it wouldn't change much.

Then the polls started coming in and clearly it moved some people to Biden/away from Trump.

I don't think this will be as clear, but I think you'll see another percentage point move.

Not anything of import happened to change Biden's big lead in the polls.

I'm not seeing a spike suggesting that the debate had any significant impact.

...isn’t bad when you’ve got a 9.5% lead (or more) with twenty-seven days left.

But I would have liked to see the VP get dinged for not keeping to the agreed rules.

People seem to forget that only Trump is the one being judged. Trump still losing is something I refer to as a victory.
