mostly like what he has to say, I have more confidence in Sam Wang's models at the PEC. http://election.princeton.edu/

Both sites have consistently been predicting a solid win probability for Hillary. I honestly believe, however, that both are actually lowballing the electoral vote totals that Hillary will win, likely because they have not factored in Hillary's outstanding ground game networks enough. After all, Trump has basically alienated GOP networks that would traditionally be canvassing for him. Yes, he's given a free pass and free press by the broadcast media, which drives us all crazy, but when it comes to actual voting, I believe that the tables will be turned.

GOTV and show me that my opinion is correct! Please!!!!!
