@skepticalsports It's still not clear to me whether it was intended to signal suppression even though it might have seemed to imply mitigation, or whether it was indeed a call for mitigation as opposed to suppression. Probably a mix of both depending on who you ask. — PolitiTweet.org

And in general, imputing the national popular vote from state polls is actually a bit more accurate than national polls on their own. It's a lot more work to do it, but sometimes it's worth it, e.g. state polls correctly implied a larger Obama win in 2012 than national polls did. — PolitiTweet.org

@skepticalsports I think there's a utilitarian defense of it that it got people on the same page in the short run, and the short run mattered a lot and was pretty important, but I think that defense should concede that it created confusion later. — PolitiTweet.org
