An excerpt from the article:
But a new analysis by fivethirtyeight.com suggests the billionaire faces tough odds against Hillary Clinton in November.
The website, known for its political acumen, looked at 20 polls in Florida looking at the presidential race. It then weighted each poll by its sample size, how recently it was conducted, and the historical accuracy and methodology of the polling firm. The model then adjusts each poll based on other factors.
The result? Clinton has a 73.5% chance of winning the state vs. 26.5% chance that Trump emerges victorious.
It’s worse news nationally for Trump. FiveThirtyEight gives the mogul only a 20.7% chance of winning the White House.
All I can say is that poster Markle needs to get to work. He has an uphill climb convincing voters to vote against Hillary. He has never told us about the number of forums he actually posts on--this one is not the only one he frequents.
News like this is enough to make a wingnut lose sleep at night. I sure wish PaceDog would come back before the election. It is going to be fun here as November approaches!
