Not on-topic, but I'm amused to realize the last five former Vice Presidents to take office are Nixon, Johnson, Ford, Bush Sr., and Biden. Somehow Biden probably has the best reputation of those five.

As a Nevada resident, I'm fairly confident Harris will take this state, but I still wouldn't put stock in any polls until Ralston (resident pollster who has predicted nearly every NV statewide election correctly in the last decade) makes his call.

Nevada has voted Blue every presidential election since 2008, it's not really a shocker. Even Hillary won it by over 2 points.

The only reason anyone has it tilt red right now is because of a handful of polls, and Nevada polling is historically worthless.

EDIT: Oh, because it's Trafalgar. Lol yeah that is silly.

I did listen to that interview in the end, he mostly came off as normal, said he would be voting Harris and so on but

A) When asked what woke was and why he had a problem with it despite being a self-described liberal he clearly had no idea.

B) He claimed that in 2016 he wasnt actually wrong because he was less wrong than everybody else.

The guy seems like yet another cautionary tale about social media. Hed probably be fine (or at least seen as fine) he laid off the twitter.

The only problem is he was and still sort of is too high on his own supply from prior elections to also say this.

His bigger problem now, all politics aside, is that his solution to statistical noise is to introduce as much statistical noise as possible.

Not really. He was extremely bearish on Hillary's chances relative to the distribution, like multiple std devs away. Maybe you don't remember just how confident everyone was that Hillary would dominate. And she was very close to dominating, due to the small margins in certain states. If you ran the election multiple times, Hillary would've won many of them due to variance, maybe even the majority. In that sense he basically nailed the expected % perfectly. He's being humble when he says he was "less wrong".

I'm a white person and can tell you exactly what woke is. It's the idea that people of varying creeds, colours, religions and cultures deserve an equal amount of respect and a chance at representation when their inclusion in anything doesn't equal the exact amount or proper population distribution. Meaning that instead of them getting the representation that is equal to what exists in real life any representation for them means they are instantly being over represented.

The problem with the people that use woke is that they don't want to admit this thought process makes them a fucking bigot and they can't admit to themselves that this thought process is an active demonstration of how fucking privileged their shitty fucking lives are.

Discussion of Hillary/Trump polling data always neglects to mention that Comey reopened an FBI investigation literally one week before the election

It wasn't variance, it was a big, sudden voter shift caused by a dramatic event that the polls didn't have time to account for. If you hold the election before the Comey thing, Hillary wins ez
