@BrendanNyhan @gelliottmorris There are just several layers of dishonestly, with the implication that our model incorporates far more uncertainty in 2020 than in 2016, which is not true. — PolitiTweet.org

@BrendanNyhan @gelliottmorris He's also citing the win probability from the "polls-only" version of our forecast from 2016, rather than "polls-plus", which is the version that we're using in 2020. And he's not mentioning the fact that Biden is in the midst of his post-convention period, while Clinton wasn't. — PolitiTweet.org

@BrendanNyhan @gelliottmorris Because as I've pointed out to George before, you can directly compare the *forecasted* margins of victory we show in each state to the win probabilities we showed and they show that the same margin translates to about the same win probabilities as in 2016. — PolitiTweet.org
