Following a fresh election forecast strongly suggesting that former President Trump will win in November, Democrats are in full panic mode and focusing their attention once more on the Electoral College.
After running the models, election expert Nate Silver calculated that Trump had a 65.7% chance of defeating President Biden. “The presidential election isn’t a toss-up,” the statistical expert declared in a blog post following the findings, which he revealed on Wednesday.
“I honestly don’t think Biden has a greater chance of winning; I think Trump has a better chance,” Silver said.
According to the New York Post, Silver’s most recent forecast, which is based on 40,000 model runs, indicates that Biden, 81, would probably defeat Trump, 78, in the national popular vote by a tenth of a percentage point (47.2% to 47.1%). But according to Silver’s forecast, Trump will receive 287 electoral votes in the crucial Electoral College, which is slightly more than the 270 required to win the presidency.
If the popular vote is almost evenly divided, Silver stated, “You would expect Biden to be in grave trouble if the Electoral College/popular vote disparity looks anything like it did in 2016 or 2020.”
“Biden will need to win all three of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania if he loses Georgia, Arizona, and Nevada—and he lags significantly in each of those states,” he noticed.
In 54 percent of our simulations, Biden prevails in at least one of these states. However, in only 32 [%] of the simulations, does he win all three of them,” Silver continued. “This is the level of accuracy that a model can offer that your intuition truly can’t.”
The Democrats were obviously attempting to assign blame because Silver’s prediction did not look good for them. Political podcaster and columnist Matt Yglesias laid the blame on the Electoral College.
Social media rolled its eyes collectively at the sarcastic remark.
