Which piece Atlas #Analysis was proven right by the 2016 election, aside from NH being marginally more Democratic than expected?

McCrory's a dead man for one.

Trouble is, Atlas provides endless streams of analysis and it constantly ebbs and flows with dominant fashion. That said, the narrative of a Midwest sweep for the GOP, in tandem with a concurrent surge in the sunbelt and Rockies for the Democrats, was not an uncommon one amongst certain people, sometimes even becoming a dominant theory. Of course, most people misdiagnosed the candidate needed to create this swing (this was the heyday of the "soothing Midwestern Governor" notion, which would become a meme on these boards almost as soon as it was said).

I mean, I can't talk: I called the primary correctly quite early, but the only major call I got right in the general was that Johnson was way less vulnerable than Kirk ever was.
