@DanRosenheck @StatModeling I know the various ways that people can fuck up when building these forecasts, and I've fucked some of them up myself, so I can often look at a result and say "oops, there must be a bug there, or at least something that wasn't well considered", and more often than not, I'm right. — PolitiTweet.org

@DanRosenheck @StatModeling The reason I think those other numbers are wrong is because I've literally spent years digging into the weeds on the frankly fairly obscure set of problems you need to make election forecasts. Probably more time than anybody else. So my knowledge base is pretty strong. — PolitiTweet.org

This is pretty dishonest. Our current forecast is for Biden to win the popular vote by 6 points. 8 points (not 9) is his current lead in the polling average & the model expects the race to tighten. And our forecast has Biden winning by only 3-4 points in the tipping-point states. — PolitiTweet.org
