- wtallis 6y agoThe assertion you're responding to was not about Trump's odds in an absolute sense, but relative to other pollsters and forecasters. So pointing out the precise value FiveThirtyEight assigned to that outcome doesn't refute anything until you compare it to somebody else's number.
- patrickthebold 6y agoThe GP is saying 538 did better compared to other news outlets. You need to also provide a source for another news outlet giving Hillary less than 71.4% if you want to show that the GP is wrong.
