Y'all should be following Darth https://twitter.com/darth No idea who it is, but Darth posts rapid-fire Photoshops of trump and others, alongside dogs and commentary on french fries. Gets crazy when actual journalists and Darth go back-and-forth on something, it's like an actually funny internet leak.

Vasudus posted:I don't think it's possible for any sort of tomfoolery to prevent the house from flipping. I can 100% see suppression and other shenanigans preventing a seat flip here or there, or maybe even a whole state. But not everywhere. And if what's happened so far with early voting is even remotely true of tomorrow, there's nothing that can stop the wave. Most prognosticators are putting the House D-gain in the neighborhood of 30-40 when they need 23. The polling data basically says that you shouldn't be shocked if the Democrats only get 19, or if they get like 50. The reliability of the polling data is really tough, because it badly missed in Virginia (expected to be a toss-up, Democrat won by 6), but was just about right in Alabama (toss-up, Democrat won by 1.7) and Georgia (same, Republican by 4%). Could be a squeaker, could be a democratic fuckup, could be a blue tsunami. The squeaker/wave is more likely, but people are bad at probabilities.

Vasudus posted:Like legit there has to be *something* new invented to accurately poll people otherwise in maybe a decade polls will just straight up go extinct, rather than just be increasingly inaccurate. Right now, the main obstacle to public polling is cost. The NYT/Sienna polls are the new gold standard of running polling - pulling a sample directly from the voter file of the target district/state and calling them. That's expensive as all gently caress, since you have to staff a call center, repeatedly call the same number in hopes of getting the person, then figure out sample weighting for the people you absolutely can't contact. The method generally beats Random Digit Dialing, but IIRC some of that is banned by state laws. That's why there's been a flood of online-pollsters because online polls are cheap as hell, but still good-ish enough to be accurate. If a news organization wants to run a poll for news consumption value, the onliners are the way to go. Proud Christian Mom posted:Everyone's models assume you're a prior voter which could lead to some amazing results if non-voter turnout is really as high as it seems This has been the #1 problem for pollsters: who votes? Generally, a "likely voter" responds something like an 8-10 on a "How sure are you to vote this election?" question, but people lie like crazy about that question. Some 10s don't end up voting, but get weighed heavy in the sample, while some 5-6s are barely counted, but still vote! The general movement of society from landlines to cell phones have really hosed up pollsters.

Hremsfeld posted:Oh, that's where they went. There are currently two major theories, both plausible, that explain the Broward County weird numbers. 1) Machine-reading error (being advanced by the Democratic Superlawyer on Nelson's side) 2) FLORIDA VOTERS DO NOT HAVE EYES https://twitter.com/NewsbySmiley/status/1060571314749128704 In one particular district, FL-24, there was no House race, and Florida law may say that uncontested races don't appear on the ballot anywhere. That means that only the Senate race's choice was in the bottom-left and Florida voters forgot to look down there.

The Florida recount is official! https://twitter.com/CNN/status/1061334247385022465 Everything gets machine counted again, then if a race stays within 0.25%, any undervotes/overvotes get hand-checked. Democrats are hoping that the machines are hosed up and not counting the votes in Broward right, Republicans are hoping that the ballot design is so hosed up that a bunch of Democrats didn't vote in the Senate race.

The best part about that is that McSally is likely about to get appointed for the McCain Senate seat, held temporarily by Jon Kyl. That's why McSally didn't ring the conspiracy gong when national Republicans and Trump wanted her to. So the future future Senator just conceded to the future Senator.
