When at least 50% of the total days of the polls being used in the average contain polling data taken after the debate (9/27 and beyond) I will revisit the average and see how it compares. Anyone that has a problem with this methodology is free to object or suggest another, and I will take their comments under advisement.

Your proposition makes the baseless assumption that any of us give a shit about your "benchmark". I can assure you that we don't. Use whatever the fuck you want.
