And that lower lighter line, zooming skyward, as if to intercept, overtake that other line!

They don't do this shit with Republicans. Oh yeah, to make it seem like this race is closer than it is. Wouldn't we all rather see a more accurate poll only including the people running?

Among Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton appears to have arrested her summer slump. Clinton leads the Democratic field with 52 percent of the vote, 29 points ahead of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).

They updated it to include the Morning Consult Poll in which Hillary is up 2 and Bernard is down 1 from just a week ago and since some posters believe every trend is linear Hillary should be up to 100% by Thanksgiving.

You can assume anything you want, but the truth is you don't know if he will run or not.
Most pollsters are of the opinion that Biden pulls from both Clinton and Sanders evenly, or close to evenly.
If you go to the link you can see the polls being used for the chart. Or hover your cursor over a dot on the chart for the poll.
