It's not "biased" and never has been to project a winner based on statistical data. But if we're sticking to a statistical conclusion, how do you think Biden should be described at this point?

There is essentially no basis in history or law to believe that Biden will not take office, unless he dies before inauguration. There are no credible legal theories by which he will not be elected.

I don't think it's biased either. That's why I didn't say they should do it to be unbiased, but to look unbiased.

People are really not taking the loss of faith of 70M Americans as seriously as they aught to.

What should "people" do? The loss of faith is driven by four years of the President lying day in, day out. There have been plenty of voices throughout speaking up for truth and institutional respect, but they're baselessly attacked at the highest levels.
