    I predicted that Trump would win the election but lose Pennsylvania... I'm also not feeling so moved as to abandon my initial call.

    Based on information I had two weeks ago, I predicted that Trump would win the election but lose Pennsylvania... But I'm also not feeling so moved as to abandon my initial call. I just think Trump has more paths to the presidency, and so I'm hanging tight for the final 48 hours.

    Pennsylvania is like a fifty to fifty state for the presidentially my model, it's eighty percent for the Senate... So he's an underdog. He's done a good job against Casey

    When the Trump people are like, we're seeing absolutely blowout turnout in New Hampshire, I'm like, no, you're not. You're not gonna win New Hampster.

    I don't think she's right that he's gonna win it. But before I viewed it as a safe race, Mount model had it a two percent chance for them... Now I have it up to around twenty or you know, twenty five.

    I do have the Kamala landslide scenario, and by landslide, I mean that she wins some level of victory in all seven of the swing states.

    I don’t think a late shift to Harris will be enough though. I think enough voters are genuinely frustrated with the direction of the country that they’ll go with Trump.

    My guess is that Trump wins. But I won’t be at all surprised if Harris wins.

    And, again, I think he's going to win... including my own, given I picked Trump to win... a fairly likely outcome here is that Kamala Harris wins Pennsylvania and loses the election.
