Firstly, it seems pretty clear polling Hispanic/Latino people as one unified populace isn't working well, given how Cuban Americans have a large presence in the Republican party instead of the Democratic one and that ignoring the race of the people polled is likely very unhelpful and means statements made about Hispanic people probably don't apply to all or maybe most of them.
Secondly, while polling is largely associated with politics, I think it isn't the only place that it could be useful. For example, a large question in many relationship-related subreddits and is if something you do or would like to do is normal, and I think polling on what people want/would want from people they would partner with would be good. (Although this might be more a semi-pragmatic thing, given that a lot of this talking seems to think "normal" and "ok" are the same, which is not really true.)

The CDU and SPD are tied, although it seems the SPD is for now leading by a slim margin
-
The 3 left-of-center parties have a minority of seats together, meaning they couldn't form a government together if they wanted to
-
Die Linke is close to the electoral cut-off of entering parliament, and risks getting nothing this election(it appears this is not the case because Linke usually win more than 3 constituency seats, which invalidates the 5% threshold.) -
The AfD and the FDP seem to be likely to get the same amount of votes that got in 2017
-
The Greens and SPD have grown by similar margins (but the current polling rise is the SPD's polling rise)
How do you feel about the election as it stands? Also include any more live updates if you know of them.
