Hillary won more votes for President

So at this point Nate Silver has Clinton solidly over the 270 electoral votes.

This is WITHOUT:
1. North Carolina.......Clinton currently with a 60% chance of winning
2. Nevada..................Clinton currently with a 59% chance of winning
3. Florida....................Clinton currently with a 55% chance of winning
4. Ohio........................Trump favored to win with 57% chance

How does someone amass 650,000 emails? That doesn't seem possible.

It seems completely possible to me. Even I have probably sent and received that many emails within the past 10 years, and I just have a regular office job.

That is a lot of emailing!

Yeah, well it includes all of my personal email and spam and stuff too, but I do send and receive a LOT of email for my job. It's by far the most used form of communication between people at work. I think I've read, received, and sent at least 25 emails just this morning, only 2 hours into the work day, not counting all the non-work related stuff (i.e. alerts about vinyl sales, lol), and it's super slow because it's Halloween. Calling someone to talk about something is almost unheard of at this point (but I still do it - it is actually way more efficient sometimes). The thing about email is that it is indeed a record of conversations. That has turned out to be a negative for Clinton, lol, but for most people, it is a massive benefit to have everything discussed and decided upon and sent and received recorded electronically. If someone comes to me and asks me about some minor contract that was signed or even just mentioned 6 years ago, or about an invoice that someone was asking about in 2014, I can simply do a search for it and boom, within seconds I've got all the information that everyone forgot about years ago on my screen. Some complain about email, but I definitely see the real benefit to making it your primary mode of work communication (and the benefit of never deleting them!! I would never delete an email... unless, of course, it was incriminating! ).

Seriously.
And thanks for that brain image above. That's just sad...but funny too.
Have a great week, everyone.

Why Don't we talk about how the DNC helped rig the primaries? And as soon as the DWS resigned HRC hired her on. Why don't we talk about how Clinton received debate questions in advance of the debate?

Awwwwww

So over 270 without all 4 of these? Read a pretty promising article this morning about how Nevada is already in the bag based on early voting

Edit. Yeah, so no Nevada, FL, NC, Ohio or IA and she carries everything else, she is at 273.

I don't see how she loses. Nate Silver's chance at winning seems very pessimistic.

Yes....and Colorado is the Alamo for Clinton (according to Silver today {can change daily}) with Clinton currently 78% likely to win CO.

Scroll down about midway to "The Winding Path...". It's a real nice way to see what is going on.

I have been finding more and more on 538 that interests me each day as I panic and dig deeper to feel better about this. I have not messed with the winding path chart yet though

Yeah, she hasn't trailed in any poll in CO since mind September....that makes me feel better. I am also fairly confident in NC

This is fun too

This will be an interesting election for his formula. No reason not to trust it (again) but it's such an unusual dynamic out there now.

His book "The Signal and the Noise" might describe this election perfectly. The noise makes you worry and distracts you but the signal is going our way big time. As of today at least.
