Well, look, I think what we've seen across the country in, uh, polling that the reason that Biden is doing better than Hillary Clinton performed at least in polling is that, uh, you know, non-white voters, you know, (1?????)generally breaking 3 to 1 to the democrat that's very similar to Hillary Clinton (2?????)objectors. (3?????)There's some signs it, uh, Biden during the worse with non-white voters particulary Latinos than, uh, Hillary Clinton did. But the big change is that amongst white voters both with a four-year college degree and without a four-year college, first group being much more democratic than, uh, than in the past and the latter group becoming much more republican over the time. There's a lot of signs that the president... that Biden is doing significantly better with that group. And that has some consequences for states that are whiter than the national average, um, states like Ohio. And, you know, the, the, the, the thing for, for Joe Biden and Trump is that, you know, (4?????)if he's done, if Ohio is a coin flip probably means that, that some other states in the Midwest typically more domocratic, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, um, those places where Biden is probably leading, and that's what the polls tell us now.

(5?????)summary: Biden has a higher approval rating among white voters than Hillary Clinton did. If Biden and Trump run neck and neck in Ohio where the share of whites is higher than the average state, Biden may lead in other midwest states where people are more democratic than Ohio. That's why Trump seems to be eroding now.





(1)What does (1?????) mean, teacher? I don't understand it T.t

(2)Please check (2,3?????), teachers.

(3)What does (4?????) mean, teacher?

(4)Would you correct my (5?????)summary? It's a bit long??
