Voting later this month. It means a good portion of you have made up your mind, but there are some still left deciding out there and we know that because the polling is changing. Harris is inching ahead nationally and in key battlegrounds including Sun Belt states so who are those folks and how much change is still possible in these next furious few weeks . Joining us now at the big board, Nbc News national political correspondent, the one and only, steve kornacki. So where are we today, steve . Look at it from two vantage points.
