33. It simply requires too many things to happen
Sat Sep 17, 2016, 02:10 PM
Sep 2016

1. Women flip and go Trump over Hillary
2. Millennials don't come out at all, or vast numbers go third party (they aint going Trump)
3. Hispanics come out at low levels
4. AAs come out at low levels
5. Educated whites change their mind
6. Whites reverse significantly their declining share of the vote

I can see some of these things happening, but I highly doubt all of those things happen.

I'm trying to keep Zen about the whole experience. no_hypocrisy Sep 2016 #1
