Wishful thinking.

I believe Trump is going to win, but since he’s never won the popular vote, the margin will be pretty slim or he’ll just win based on electoral college again.

Trump has his biggest lead at the betting site, Predictit.org. Now a "10 cent" lead.

I’m assuming that’s giving him a 65% chance of winning Pennsylvania and not that he’s getting 65% of the vote.

The polls say your wrong. Dominion and illegals voting give you a high five though.

The polls said Hillary was a lock in 2016 as well. And I haven’t seen any reputable poll with a gap that big.

Hope this is true:
Minnesota, New Mexico, Virginia, and New Hampshire as only "safe Harris."

Do you really believe that after polling being so far off to the left the previous two election cycles that now all of a sudden they are too far right?

I assume that as well.

If he were to get 65% of Pennsylvania he would win about every state. That would be an incredible jump from 2020 when he got 48% of the vote in Pennsylvania

Wrong. It's not a 12 point lead! 58¢ to 46¢.

yes this is clearly just based on odds.

Trump doesn’t have to come close to winning the popular vote to have a 68% chance of winning election. He ran away with the election in 2016 and lost the popular vote by a decent margin.

If he’s got a 65% chance to win PA based on recent polling there then it’s fair to say he has a 2/3 chance to win the election given that correlation should be pretty tight. I’ve predicted all along whoever takes PA will win the election even though there is a slight chance Trump could still win the election without PA considering how strong he’s polling in the rest of the swing states.

You idiots keep saying this like it has meaning. I’ll give you a quick lesson on presidential elections in the USA.

THE POPULAR VOTE MEANS NOTHING, ZERO. USING THE PHRASE MAKES YOU LOOK AS STUPID AS SOMEONE WHO SAYS THERE’S NO DIFFERENCE IN WOMEN THAT HAVE A PUSSY AND MEN WHO DRESS LIKE WOMEN THAT HAVE A DICK

fricking idiots

Maybe it's really volatile. Just checked. 57 cents to 47 cents at 3:42 CDT.
