Anyone heard of the "University of Mary Washington" or know anything about their polling?

They apparently have a poll showing Harris only up two in Virginia.

That being said, they just dropped it today, and it was taken before the debate, so I have a feeling this is more about narrative-setting than anything else.

The University of Mary Washington is located in Fredericksburg, VA. I applied there and was accepted when it was called Mary Washington College, as did many of my classmates. I ultimately opted to attend Roanoke College (which puts out its own sometimes dubious polls.)

This poll result looked plausible two or three months ago, toward the end of Biden's run. Now it's a clear outlier, and was mostly taken at least two weeks ago, pre-debate (Sept. 3-9) so it's somewhat outdated as well.

Yes, they have occasionally done Virginia polling before. They don’t have a great track record.
