okaaaay but he predicted trump in 2016 and trump did NOT win the popular vote that year. it would be more accurate to say the keys predict the electoral college winner, and he was only wrong in 2000 because SCOTUS stopped the recount and handed it to bush because cronyism.
TBH. Lichtman is the latest to find reasons for predicting. But we are also talking about 13 Elections since the creation of Presidential primaries to base it on. most were landslides and never in doubt on election day. 2000 and 2016 were aberrations only because of craziness of the Electoral college that do not reflect the popular vote.
grain of salt. vote like democracy depends on it
@Kinnison oh for sure, but given people's propensity to want to vote for the winner, i wonder to what extent these predictions become self-fulfilling prophecies? maybe by predicting trump he motivated would-be couch potatoes to turn out for trump. maybe by calling it for kamala while the polls are agonizingly close or even leaning red, he's hoping to motivate unlikely voters to show up for dems.
That is always the key. Motivating the unlikely voters. Sadly it is never about policy for them, but vibes, and gut checks, and wanting to bother trying to vote with all the types of voter suppression out there
3 hour wait times, and lack of early voting, or mail in voting are by design to suppress votes
oh, there it is. lol. sometimes you just gotta keep reading.
