By contrast, our fancy model puts Trump's chances at 13%, in part because it also uses data from pre-1980 when polling errors were more common. But that's not so different than 10% and it's good to pass a sanity check like this. — PolitiTweet.org

Model gut check: * Biden leads by 5 points in PA, the most likely tipping point * In 2 of the past 10 elections, there's been a 5+ point swing between polls now and the final result. * Assume a 50/50 chance such a swing would favor Trump. * That gives Trump a 10% chance. — PolitiTweet.org

@IChotiner In the abstract, I guess that's right (early vote = less potential for late swings) but I also have no idea if pollsters are accounting for the early vote properly which creates some additional uncertainty. — PolitiTweet.org
