Without the shading it's an okayish map except for Nevada and New Hampshire; with the shading it's a terrible map.

Well, uh, any map that has NH colored for Trump is a garbage map.
Also it makes maps look SO ugly when NH is GOP and the surrounding states are all Democratic.

Fortunately, we'll never ever have to see that image again in our lifetime. Smiley

Kinda like 538, EP is making the mistake of putting all polls, even those of obviously horrible quality, in the average. His predictions from previous elections when polling was much better (esp in the 2004-2008 era) were very, very good.

EDIT: I have looked through the site, and saw in the blogs tab "conservative commentary", and "expressions of faith"

It is an openly strongly socially conservative Republican website. He was cheerleading for Cruz pretty heavily in the primary, and he's gone to Trump without a hitch, as most of these types have.

He just flipped FL, and will probably flip NH as well once he adds the new poll.

Hey Vosem, are you ready to replace Portman with Planet Hillary in 2 days? Wink

Yes. He is an open partisan, but his methods are not partisan. I remember in 2012, he was flirting with the idea that perhaps the polls were scewed, but he never actually unscewed polls himself. He is not delusional.

It looks good at first but NH is only the beginning.

Trump needs to exceed 45%, correct? Still sticking to my end of the bet. Enjoy having Felito in your signature Cheesy

At least it's not a complete garbage map that we have been seeing lately.
But ... NO.

This is not a projection? It's poll averaging.
