This seems to be the consensus map, though Baron von Pussengropen would dispute the fact that the upper midwest, Pennsylvania, Maine, and New Hampshire aren't shaded bright Republican red (blue).

If this is either 100% or very close I'll... Well, I don't know what I would do. But it would shock me.

Fair, but I think Hillary will do slightly better.

Not a bad map, though the probabilities and margins are way off in several states.

Battlegrounds are those where no candidate has move than 75% chance.


538- 72%
Upshot- 84%
Wang  95%

I think it is somewhere in the 80s.

Trump needs every single tossup for the biggest upset ever.

I'm not sure about NC and ME-02, but it will probably nail everything else.

Anyone want to take the time to add in his predicted percentages?

If it were the 538 map plus Ohio, I would be very happy.

It's too Trumpy in states like Arizona, Ohio, Iowa and possibly Alaska, but otherwise nice. Smiley

Someone explain to me how Hillary has a chance in North Carolina if black turnout is truly down and Obama couldn't even win the state in 2012 with his level of turnout; don't see how it's possible.

Looks good to me otherwise.
