According to the FiveThirtyEight polling averages, the most competitive states Trump needs to push him over 270 electoral votes are:

• Florida - where Biden leads by +2
• Arizona - Biden +3
• Pennsylvania - Biden + 5

Pennsylvania alone has 20 electoral votes and winning without it seems unlikely. Given his weak polling numbers, one would expect Trump to spend all of his time campaigning in these crucial states to try and improve his numbers right before the election.

Instead, with less than 100 hours to go, Trump is actually pulling his resources out of Florida and Both campaigns are flying directly to Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan this Friday. This move makes no sense to me, seeing that the polling averages have Biden up by +8, +8.6 and +8.6 respectively. If the polls are actually correct, that seems like a insurmountable lead. In fact, the state of Minnesota has not even gone for the Republican since 1972 and would not be necessary for Trump to get to 270 electoral votes. The states of Florida, Arizona and Pennsylvania are very necessary.

So why are both campaigns spending crucial resources in these supposedly non-competitive states in the days right before election?
