Why are there so many votes for Likely R? Clinton would need to win by about 20 points nationally to flip this district.
I'm not sure it would take a 20-point win, but some have differing ideas about what "safe" means. I highly doubt Trump had any kind of chance in Michigan or Minnesota, but I rated them Likely D out of caution.
I agree that it depends on what "safe" means, but it seems strange that people still voted Minnesota as Safe D despite it being more competitive than NE-01 in past elections, even if Trump is a bad fit for the state.
