        Interesting. From Nate.

        The Univision poll I referenced earlier, exclusively of Latino voters in Pennsylvania, showed her with a 64-30 lead, much better than she’s polled for most of the year in crosstabs of Hispanic voters and also better than Biden in 2020. And for its climactic closing event at Madison Square Garden, the Trump campaign decided to feature a comedian who called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage”. The Hispanic population in Pennsylvania has an outsized number of Puerto Ricans.

          So if she’s going to pull it off it’ll have to be due to her increased strength with whites generally and with women in particular. Relative to Biden.

            Maybe.

            Initial numbers show her doing better in some places, worse in others

            Maybe we'll wind up 279-279.

            Which is fine by me.

                Betting markets are now 80% for Trump winning the electoral college. Started the night in the high 50s.

                  Really? I’m seeing very few places where she is outperforming Biden.

                    Just eyeballing things, Trump seems safe to get around 250 w/o real effort. It may be PA that decides this thing.

                      Though DDHQ called Virginia for Harris, there's some question about that being premature.

                        85% for Trump winning now on the betting market I'm following. Kamala better hope lots of dumb money is flowing in.

                            How do we know it isn't a bunch of concerned Dems hedging their bets now following the trend and selling off in favor of Trump?

                              is there a sense in which that doesn't mean the betting public is gaining faith in a Trump victory? I don't see how the desired outcome of the people moving money around, makes any difference.

                                Last and final update: 12:30 a.m., Tuesday, November 5. Happy Election Day! At exactly midnight on Tuesday, we ran our simulation model for the final time in this election cycle. Out of 80,000 simulations, Kamala Harris won in 40,012 (50.015%) cases.

                                That's Nate Silver's "pencils down" final answer for who his model predict will win the 2024 presidential election.

                                  Nice to see he didn’t get a majority. (If Nate’s right anyway). So close. I wonder what he’ll attribute it to? lol

                                    That's the late California vote.

                                    As long as he still wins the popular vote, I don't think it's a big deal.
