Election prediction - predict the correct Electoral College totals

[DAB]

you must correctly select the winner for president, and be the closest with the electoral college totals.

there are a total of 538 votes, winner needs at least 270 to win.

i'll go:

Trump 321, Clinton 217

go.

the winner? maybe we can get you a tag for your avatar, like the NCM supporter. "2016 Election Expert" or something like that. and bragging rights.

we'll have to ask the mods to close this by 5pm EDT on election day. so there won't be any cheating.

[DAB]

from another thread,

Cybercowboy - My entry is Trump 305, Hillary 233. (if you want to change, you may do so until election day).

[Fasglas]

Trump - 315

The remainder are of no concern.

The states that are thought to be undecided will all go to Hillary. I have already resigned myself to the fact that there are far more clueless parasites than there are Republicans.

It would be easy to post what I think is most likely to happen, some kind of Clinton win, so I'm going wishful thinking & early voting analysis, and a lust for maximum chaos and tears.

PREDICTION: Clinton wins popular vote with a plurality, 269-269 electoral college tie, House installs Trump as President as the GOP will control a majority of state delegations


-Nevada polls showing Trump up are wrong (sort of). They don't factor in Harry Reid's machine. Clark county is as dirty as it gets, and Trump +2 in the polls isn't enough to overcome fraud. Clinton "wins" NV.

-North Carolina early voting for Clinton is horrific. Dem turnout = 2012, GOP turnout up 10%+, Independent turnout up 40%+, white turnout up, black turnout down. Polls showing slight Trump lead are wrong, Trump wins easily.

-Florida early voting is no longer horrific for Clinton now that Dems caught and passed the GOP yesterday in early voting, BUT still well short of 2012 Obama #s. Based on polls showing election day voters are Trump +10ish, she didn't build enough of a lead. Trump wins it, CLOSE due to Broward County ballot box stuffing by Dems

-Maine CD 2 the polls showing Trump up slightly here and NH get it close, BUT Clinton eeks out New Hampshire with the population center vote. No such luck in Maine CD 2 which is all rural. Trump steals an EV from Maine.

-Colorado the Colorado poll average with Clinton up a couple of points is proven wrong. Colorado is all mail ballots now, but with election day drop off locations. Democrats started strong, but GOP kept inching closer and now has actually returned more ballots in Colorado than registered Democrats. Trump wins a close one.

Polls that consistently gave Clinton a comfortable lead in recent weeks included Bloomberg Politics, CBS News, Reuters/Ipsos, USA TODAY/Suffolk, Quinnipiac, Monmouth, Economist/YouGov and NBC News/SM, according to RealClearPolitics.

Pollsters suffer huge embarrassment
Pollsters suffer huge embarrassment | TheHill (http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/305133-pollsters-suffer-huge-embarrassment)

Trump had long said the polls were biased against him. His claims – dismissed and mocked by the experts – turned out to be true.

“It’s going to put the polling industry out of business,” said CNN anchor Jake Tapper. “It’s going to put the voter projection industry out of business.”

Going into Election Day, a strong majority of pollsters and election modelers forecast that Hillary Clinton would coast to victory, with many predicting she would sweep the battlegrounds and win north of 300 electoral votes.

The final University of Virginia Center for Politics model had Clinton winning 322 electoral votes to 216 for Trump, with Clinton winning Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin – all states that she lost.

Liberals lashed out at data guru Nate Silver for giving Trump a 35 percent chance of victory heading into Election Day, claiming he was putting his thumb on the scale for Trump by making the race appear closer than it was.

Of the 11 national polls to be released in the final week of the race, only two – a Los Angeles Times-USC survey and one from IBD/TIPP – showed Trump with the lead.

The L.A. Times survey was criticized as “experimental” by industry experts for polling the same pool of people and for the way it weighted black voters.

But for the second consecutive presidential cycle, the L.A. Times and IBD/TIPP surveys were among the most accurate, making them the gold standard going forward.

The rest of the polls showed Clinton with leads of between 2 points and 6 points, boosting the Democrat to a 3.3 point national lead in the RealClearPolitics average.

And the battleground data was just as biased against Trump.

There were no surveys released this year from Wisconsin that showed Trump with a lead.

Clinton held a 6.5 point lead in the Badger State heading into Election Day, and the state was not even discussed as on par with Michigan or Pennsylvania as a potential blue state pick-up for Trump.

Trump’s victory in Wisconsin — a state that has not gone for the GOP nominee since 1984 — helped him seal the deal.

In Michigan and Pennsylvania, deep blue states the GOP candidate has not won in decades, polls showed the race tightening in the home stretch, but only one poll, from Trafalgar Group, showed Trump with the lead.

Election modelers declined to flip either state into Trump’s column, even as the Clinton campaign rushed furiously to defend those states in the final days of the election.

And Trump won North Carolina by nearly 4 points, despite polls showing a toss-up there.

Many early reports coming out of the Tar Heel State bought the Clinton campaign’s spin that Hispanic turnout had spiked to such a degree that it would make up for a decline in early voting among African Americans.

Pollster John Zogby believes that many in the industry weighted their polls too heavily in favor of Democrats, pointing to polls that had an 8 to 9 point advantage for the party, when it should have been in the 4 to 5 point range, he said.

It’s a claim that Trump made throughout the process.

But pollsters largely dismissed that notion, saying that Democrats turn out in larger numbers in a presidential election year and that Republicans were losing registered voters, who were increasingly identifying as independents.

That assumption will have to be reexamined.

[Cybercowboy]

Yeah, I've known the polls were fake for a long time. Since 1980!

I'll declare a winner when the last states are called.

if current trends continue, trump will take AZ and MI, clinton NH, making the total Trump 304, which would mean Cyber would win with a guess of 305, the closest of all. i'll wait to call it until the votes are finalized.

as i read elsewhere earlier,

the point of winning power is to use power.

those boys better get to work and do something. and right quick.

[DAB]

ok, time to call this.

Fox still has not called the last 3 states, but if they don't reverse their current trends, then Trump takes AZ and MI, adding 27 more votes, bringing his total to 279+27= 306

this website has the final at 306-232 as well

so i'll go with that.

therefore, the winner is:

Cybercowboy, who had Trump at 305 (-1).

in second place was Fasglas at Trump with 315 (+9), and I came in 3rd with Trump at 321 (+15).

everyone else was 28 or more off, or picked Clinton :slap:

it would be fitting to add a new tag to Cyber's avatar:

Red would be a fitting color.

Tom, can you make that happen when you get a moment?

thanks.

see you all again in 4 years. :cert:

[Cybercowboy]

Ooh, would love that flair! Thanks DAB!

I anticipate confusion with our Asian audience. :lol:

[Craig]

you had Clinton, 324. so not real close.... :slap:

In my defense, my prediction aligns with Trump's campaign management. It's being reported that, behind the scenes, the Trump organization didn't think they had a prayer.

[tjfontaine]

ok, time to call this.

Fox still has not called the last 3 states, but if they don't reverse their current trends, then Trump takes AZ and MI, adding 27 more votes, bringing his total to 279+27= 306

this website has the final at 306-232 as well

LANDSLIDE: Trump 306 Electoral Votes vs 232 Clinton Electoral Votes - The Geller Report (http://pamelageller.com/2016/11/landslide-trump-305-electoral-votes-vs-233-clinton-electoral-votes.html/)

so i'll go with that.

therefore, the winner is:

Man - I was WAAAAY off ... never so glad to be SO wrong in my life!!

Way to go Cybercowboy ... you had this thing pegged all along.

In my defense, my prediction aligns with Trump's campaign management. It's being reported that, behind the scenes, the Trump organization didn't think they had a prayer.

Trump's campaign manager said that 2-1/2 weeks before the election they knew they had a very real chance. And obviously Hillary knew Monday that she was going to lose because she cancelled the fireworks show in NYC.

Giving Florida to trump, NC to Billary, threw in Ohio for Trump but it doesn't matter.

RONG and happy to be so! Good instinct Cyber!

[Cybercowboy]

Ah, I see my new flair is active! :party:

looks good.

thought red would be appropriate, as that is the traditional color of the GOP on maps and such.

So far I owe 50 bucks to a friend in Atlanta and a fairly expensive dinner to my friend and his wife.

I hope he fixes the economy so I can recoup my loss. :D

Le Wendys. fancy french place, very unique. food is served in paper wrappers! :dance::sneaks:

[Cybercowboy]

Michigan called for Trump (http://miboecfr.nictusa.com/election/results/2016GEN_CENR.html), so I guess it's pretty much official 306 for Trump now.

I would ask for a participation trophy for at least being the person to correctly forecast a Trump popular vote loss and election win.


But this is Trump's America now.


NO PARTICIPATION TROPHIES.

My guess is that about 200k Trump voters in CA just decided to say screw it. And also that the only reason Hillary has any lead in the popular vote is due to voter fraud of some sort. I mean, all you had to show in CA is a DL to vote, and they give those to anyone regardless of immigration status. But we all know this. :lol:
