Hank would ticket split and vote for hillary reluctantly.

Peggy would vote for Hillary because it's time a woman was president.

Dale wouldn't vote because crooked hillary is rigging the election anyway. Also that's how the government can track you, look it up on infowars dot com.

Bill would fall in with the alt-right and go full #MAGA and just embarrass himself. He'd snap out of it and be real embarrassed and end up writing in Ann Richards.

Boomhauer would vote, but never tell anybody who he voted for because that dang ol ballot supposed to be secret man.

Luanne would vote for Gloria La Riva.

Lucky would vote for trump because he's gonna make america great again.

Kahn would vote for whoever Ted Wassanasong is voting for.

I'm gonna agree with this.

Hank is the very definiton of a low information voter. He votes off of his feelings as evidenced by having a serious crisis about voting for W based off of a handshake.

Hank is what, in his early/mid 40s? So if we assume he was born in the 50s (A few years after Cotton gets back from Japan where he killed fiddy men) he would have a childs view of LBJ, a Texan and Good President. Ladybird's namesake shows that he doesn't hate Democrats.

He isn't overtly racist, although he is most definitely unconsciously biased. Trumps out in the open rhetoric would turn him off, and he's way too pragmatic to vote third party.

Split ticket, Hillary at the top.

This is all dependent on which Mike Judge we get writing this episode, because modern day...

The Clinton Camp (rightly IMHO) doesn't really want to attack family members of the opposing candidate. That'd add unwelcome credibility to Trump attacking Hillary for Bill's stuff and potentially put Chelsea on the hit-list. To be honest, Ivanka has a better excuse for supporting Trump than everyone else.

To me there is a huge difference, Chelsea supports a platform that is inclusive and doesn't even attempt to otherize entire groups of people, and the other does the opposite.

To be fair, Ivanka supports a similar platform, she just seems to be unaware it's not the platform her father is running with.

I still think Ivanka votes for Hillary. I know there's literally no way we could possibly know this, but I know it to be true in my heart of hearts.

Mike Judge has always been a bit of a wild card. He isn't a loud and proud rear end in a top hat, but he doesn't exactly hide the fact that he's a libertarian.

He's definitely a second string rear end in a top hat when you have people like Matt Stone, Trey Parker, and Scott Adams on the bench.

I wasn't going to wade into this but for a thread that sometimes sucks Taleb's dick they sure do hate 538 for not dismissing the chance of black swan events out of hand.

That's because the average person here isn't a statistician and like Taleb's making GBS threads on econometric models for modeling risk in banking because "bankers are all evil and morons" but don't like Nate's conservatism on modeling because it doesn't show the Iron Abuela winning every single electoral vote.

It's entirely because of what the end result of the message is, not the logic behind it.

I wouldn't expect a Presidential campaign to admit they've lost until they have. It's only really a thing with Trump because he's refused to say he won't pull poo poo when he loses so what would be minor 'last gasps' stuff looks uncomfortably like the prelude to a huge loving mess.

This is a strawman of the anti-Nate arguments.

A better pithy slam on 538 is that Nate didn't trust his own data on Trump in the primary, and has been bitchmade ever since it blew up in his face.
