If you look at 538 you’ll see that Nate weighs Gravis differently in different States. His protocol is to give new pollsters a slightly greater than average rating, and it appears that the baseline gets tweaked in different states according to 538’s assessment of each poll’s published methodology.

Is Gravis lying about their methodology though? There’s really no way to tell until the election when everyone get’s judged against actual results.

I’m looking at 538. The only recent poll that he downgrades at all is in Florida.
