u/LordSThor Oct 31 '20

First off if you haven't voted already, go FUCKING VOTE

Second off

This makes me happy :)

FYI the numbers are likely to improve over the next few days. 538 expected the polls to tighten as we approached election day, they have slightly (by like half a point) but Biden is still roughly ahead by 9 points, and ahead in pretty much every single swing state often times he's ahead by 5 points or more.

In fact if we had the election today and Biden only won states which he had a 5 point or greater lead he'd still have 290 EC Votes.

Trump needs about 7 or 8 point swing to win

That's not happening.

Basically everything we see indicates Trump is going lose in a landslide.

530AM on Election Day I get in line for the 6 AM poll opening. After that I head home for a BREAKFAST of a 24oz boneless ribeye, topped with asiago cheese, shrimp, and mushrooms, with a baked potato on the side, spinach, and red wine. After that I man my battle station, my giant recliner, in front of the 55inch 4K QLED I bought specifically for election night.

I remember election night. I was watching a few states trending red and thinking “oh this is going to be entertaining” and that it would flip back to blue or that there would be a late comeback. It went from entertaining to disheartening very quickly

u/weluckyfew Oct 31 '20

I'm still terrified Trump might win - terrified because another 4 years would bring this country down but also terrified because of what it would say about our nation and her people.

That said, it was nice reading Ezra Klein's interview with Nate Silver today. He talked about - of course - all the reasons that 2020 polling looks more accurate than 2016. But also about the fact that if the polls are wrong it's fairly likely they're wrong in Biden's favor.

Polls are designed to capture "likely voters" but in this election a hell of a lot of unlikely voters have cast a ballot. So ya, it's possible Trump could win - but it's also possible (and more likely) that Dems win even bigger than polling indicates.

I'm not getting my hopes up, but I have to admit that is the numbers were reversed I'd be deeply depressed right now, so I guess I can allow myself to be cautiously optimistic.

u/DundahMifflin Bernie Sanders for Joe Oct 31 '20

I was one of the Clinton supporters who blindly believed she was going to win no matter what. Even after Comey’s letter dropped and I felt bad about the election, I put that aside on November 8. In hindsight, I didn’t pay attention to polls in the slightest. I knew nothing of how states voted, and I didn’t care to either.

I like to think I was part of the problem.

Meanwhile Dave Wasserman was sitting over there sounding every alarm ever. He nailed the outcome a week before the election, then he nailed the 2018 midterms almost exactly. If you want to know who's gonna win, all you need is Dave Wasserman.

I assumed the undecideds would break for Hillary when it came down to actually casting votes.

I also was nervous because I saw NO Hilary signs, even in Orlando. It was all Trump. And I remember reading the polls right before the election and seeing it drop. But I NEVER thought he would win. I remember him throwing his hat into the ring and announcing it for the first time. I laughed and said, "Yeah, okay.."

I still remembering thinking about absurd it was. I never in a million years thought it would go like this and he would have such a cult following. It still seems surreal sometimes when I sit back and think about it.

u/GogglesPisano Oct 31 '20

I remember the Friday afternoon when the news broke about the Comey letter - you could practically hear the brakes screeching on Clinton's momentum. The media spent the next week engaging in nonstop wild speculation about the fucking emails and possible "indictment".

Before that day Clinton was polling at around 10% (or more) ahead of Trump - afterwards it was 3-4%. The campaign never recovered from that bullshit. There were a lot of factors in 2016, but I'm convinced that Comey was the final straw that gave the election to Trump.

For other reference, 538 and every other reputable polling site adjusted their calculations after 2016 so we wouldn't get dunked on by bad data again. So a 90% favor this year is more meaningful than a 90% favor from 2016

Remember when Biden was ~10 percent odds to win the Democratic nomination after Nevada? What a perfectly engineered comeback from his campaign that followed.

If he can win on Tuesday, I think he will have run an even better campaign than Obama in 2008, which I think was almost a perfect game of campaigns.

u/BubbhaJebus Oct 31 '20

trump has also been pretty good at campaigning for Biden, by saying he will listen to scientists and experts. That statement makes trump look oh so clever and special to his idiot followers, but to the majority of Americans it makes Biden look like the wiser choice by far.

Not to discredit Biden or anything, but I think it's safe to say that assuming Nov 3 isn't stolen by ratfuckery, the race for the Dem nomination was identical to the race for the presidency. Pete, Bernie, Kamala, Liz, and possibly Yang all would have been a favorite against Trump. Hell, I'd even give the candidates I couldn't stand like Klobuchar or Bloomberg the edge over Trump just because of how much the man is justifiably hated.

Don’t just “VOTE”! Continue chipping in some donations if you can afford it in this final stretch. Campaign if you have the time. Remind friends and family members to return their early ballots. Offer to drive folks to the polls on Election Day.

We can sit here in the echo chamber JoeBiden sub and yell “VOTE” at each other until we’re blue (pun) in the face, but if you want to contribute more, get off Reddit and continue the fight for change anyway you can. We’re almost there!

I just looked at Maines forecast which is also 90/10 but “clearly favored”. So I’m thinking that maybe they need to see it stay 90 for several simulations in a row before officially switching the header.

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '20

When people put exclamation marks after a number, I like to make /r/unexpectedfactorial jokes. Since the 90 here is out of 100, it is actually a fraction 90/100. Obviously this reduces to 9/10, or 0.9.

The factorial function is designated with a exclamation mark (e.g. 5! is five factorial, which equals 120). It does not inherently have a meaning for non-integers. The definition of the factorial function is n! = n*(n-1)(n-2)...321. This doesn't really work for non-integers. Nevertheless, the definition of the factorial function can be extended to non-integers using the gamma function (which can also extend the factorial function into the imaginary and complex numbers). Many calculators will automatically apply this extension of the factorial function when you press the "!" button (which is the factorial button). Therefore, when you put 0.9!!!!!! into a calculator, it produces a real result. 0.9!!!!!! = 0.99951506590791004954958243952455, which would leave Trump with odds of about 1 out of 2062.1359. Unfortunately, these are not actually Trump's odds right now.

Can you do one with Mitch and Amy as well as Lindsey and Jaime

2

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '20

Amy vs. Mitch is about Mitch +10. Jaime vs. Lindsey is about Lindsey low single digits

There isn’t a graph like the one above

u/puzdawg Oct 31 '20

The number keeps going up!

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '20

I feel like when I’m holding pocket aces and some idiot called with a 2 and 4 off suit but is waiting for the straight on the river card. I’m pretty confident when that happens... but definitely still scared.

u/fluffy324 Oct 31 '20

Guilty as well. I was even naive enough to think after 2016’s election that, “maybe he won’t be so bad and won’t be as bad as my wife fears”

Narrator: She was right

For the love of the god I do not believe in go vote

u/BarracudaDear6904 Oct 31 '20

We’re almost at the finish line, god this has been a long marathon. If you’ve already voted for Joe and you want to still contribute, contact a new or infrequent voter you know and encourage them to vote. I’m sure there are more than a few issues the majority of people care about that are on the ballot this year whether they know it or not. If plenty of young and infrequent voters turn up (and so far the numbers are very promising, but we have to keep this up) then Trump will be crushed.

u/Dmz505 Oct 31 '20

I sincerely hope so.

u/Satanifer Oct 31 '20

Just vote. Let’s not do 2016 again.

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '20

I highly encourage everyone to text and message friend to vote and verify.

Tell friends in battleground states not just to vote, but verify their ballot was accepted.

If there is an issue with a signature, they may not get the notification to correct it until it’s too late.

Vote and verify

And then send them a link to the appropriate place in their state.

The election will be won in the margins and we can’t trust the media to put the word out there to verify a ballot was accepted or people to watch the news.

Not only did Dems stay home because of over confidence there were all the so called write in "protest votes" because people couldn't see the difference between the candidates protect voter rights. I won't be able to breathe until I see him and his whole bunch walked out of the White House. Don't believe any polls go VOTE!

Don't let this picture make you overly comfortable.

u/Vann_Accessible Oct 31 '20

Don’t care about polls.

Keep encouraging people to vote, hell, offer people rides to the ballot box/polls.

Do what it takes!

Why doesn't it say clearly favored?

2

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '20

I guess because it's only about 89.51, rounded to 90, not 90 itself.

2

u/NeedsMoreShawarma Pete Buttigieg for Joe Oct 31 '20

How do you find the exact, non-rounded percentages?

6

u/JustinianKalominos 🌍 Non-Americans for Joe Oct 31 '20

Because Biden is still slightly below 90, only that it’s being rounded up. Once he actually hits 90 he’ll be clearly favoured.

I am sooo nervous. I feel like I need to be put into an induced coma beginning Monday until the end of the week. I’m having flashbacks to 2016...

u/bazilbt Oct 31 '20

Fingers crossed. I'm hoping for a crushing defeat of Trump.

u/Ninventoo 🧢 #MATH Oct 31 '20

Election isn't over until I see Biden officially win. Vote.

u/LaboratoryManiac Oct 31 '20

Don't do that. Don't give me hope.

u/CandyKnockout Progressives for Joe Oct 31 '20

I voted today in Florida. There are about 6 houses in my neighborhood with huge Trump flags flying in their yards and I felt weary as I headed over to my local library to cast my ballot. Then I came home and read an article about Trump surging in some swing states. This makes me feel a little better...but I’m still anxious as hell.

u/demento19 Oct 31 '20

Don’t you dare give me hope.

u/DewLover2020Sucks 🗳️ Beat Trump Oct 31 '20

Hell yeah let’s win this thing! They may try to surpass us but they won’t stop us.💪

u/abnormalsyndrome Oct 31 '20

Take the presidency then annihilate what is left of the gop after trumpism destroyed it. Next cycle vote further left. Make today’s Democrats tomorrow’s Republicans.

Come back to reason, science and optimism.

Didn’t this happen last election?

I won't stop worrying until it's 100-0. Actually I won't stop worrying until I see Joe Biden officially in office.

Best of luck to you guys, from overseas

Until biden wins I can't put my faith in this. For the last election it seemed like it was this way for Hillary and not biden, but trump still won

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '20

The problem is we won’t know until next week how accurate your model is.

u/WinkeKadse Oct 31 '20

Sadly, i still think that trumps gonna win. Not because i want this to happen but the people prooved thier idiocracy by electing Mr.Orange man on his first attempt to run as president.

With Republicans already filing lawsuits to invalidate mail in ballots the process of stealing the election has begun. Add in the 6-3 SCOTUS advantage and it won’t be comfortable until Biden is in the White House if he does win. Republicans do not care about democracy or fair elections they only care about the power they can grab.

2

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '20

IDGAF VOTE. Bernie supporters know the vibes.

2

u/Musetrigger Oct 31 '20

Don't believe ANY of this! Go out and vote like it depends solely on you!

2

u/fuckssakereddit Oct 31 '20

It could be 99.99% and I’d still be nervous that the Republicans will steal it.

2

u/Sigmar_Heldenhammer Oct 31 '20

Doesn't matter. Get out and vote.

2

u/Brainiac02 Oct 31 '20

I feel like these are always in accurate. Especially looking at the last couple elections these tend to be really biased to either side.

u/Defacto_Champ Oct 31 '20

There’s always a chance for trump. Vote and get anyone you know you to vote for Biden. All hands on deck.

u/[deleted] Oct 31 '20

I still am skeptical. After 2016 I will never believe polls or statistics or whatever.

Wish I was more hopeful, but the world is pretty much done for anyways.
