“Morning Joe” co-host Joe Scarborough had to do some on-air backpedaling after he said election polls would look the same if Joe Biden stayed in the presidential race against Donald Trump. His MSNBC colleagues didn’t quite agree.

After a quick break down of key battleground states like Arizona, Georgia and North Carolina, all showing Kamala Harris and Trump polling within a percentage point of each other, the “Morning Joe” team laid out how the race is as close to a tied as possible. That’s when Scarborough shared his belief.

“I’m almost getting the feeling – I don’t want anybody to throw tomatoes at me – I’m almost get the feeling that if Joe Biden had somehow manage to stay in the race, it would still be tied,” he said.
