Sample size of 500 for each district, which is abysmal.

2018-09-21 13:42:20 UTC  

You need 600 to be slightly accurate, and 1000 to be worth glancing at.

2018-09-21 14:19:27 UTC  

@Pielover19 wouldn't all these House polls so far be abysmal then

2018-09-21 14:42:08 UTC  

I think that the sheer margin Hurd received is enough to make the poll somewhat credible.

2018-09-21 14:42:20 UTC  

Even if it's not 10, it's probably more like 2 or 3.

2018-09-21 14:42:29 UTC  

But that's a win.

2018-09-21 20:14:19 UTC  

I'm skeptical.

@Yellowhammer Show me your house prediction.

2018-09-23 01:38:32 UTC  

On the 270towin map.

2018-09-23 01:45:31 UTC  

@šŸŽƒBoo-tonšŸŽƒ Where're the Libertarian endorsements?

2018-09-23 01:45:46 UTC  

Oh I see.

2018-09-23 01:46:21 UTC  

You DON'T find Al Green based?

2018-09-23 01:48:58 UTC  

This is a little optimistic

2018-09-23 01:49:21 UTC  

The wheels could really come off in Florida

2018-09-23 01:49:32 UTC  

And NC could be a real dummymander

2018-09-23 01:49:32 UTC  

Your prediction's more pessimistic than the most pessimistic professional poll.

2018-09-23 01:49:48 UTC  

Or is this simply your prediction WITHOUT tossups?

2018-09-23 01:49:55 UTC  

Without tossup a

2018-09-23 01:49:58 UTC  

I see.

2018-09-23 01:50:55 UTC  

But even without tossups, it's certainly the most pessimistic ofthe polls I've seen.

2018-09-23 01:51:23 UTC  

You think ME-02 is flipping?

2018-09-23 01:55:51 UTC  

ME-02*

2018-09-23 01:56:41 UTC  

Nor I.

2018-09-23 01:57:21 UTC  

Then again, a lot of electoral dogmas have been uprooted recently.

2018-09-23 01:58:19 UTC  

Hey Guys, hows it going

2018-09-23 02:05:50 UTC  

@[Lex] yes. RCV is going to get Poliquin.

2018-09-23 02:06:08 UTC  

And Golden is a fairly strong candidate. Itā€™s Tilt D

2018-09-23 02:09:36 UTC  

ME-02 is a very WWC state, I think Poliquin will survive

2018-09-23 02:09:47 UTC  

the seats I'm most worried about are seats with a high amount of college educated democrats

2018-09-23 02:10:03 UTC  

because there are two countervailing turnout trends

2018-09-23 02:10:08 UTC  

non-Whites have lower turnout in midterms

2018-09-23 02:10:14 UTC  

that helps the GOP, especially in the sunbelt

2018-09-23 02:10:16 UTC  

However....

2018-09-23 02:10:31 UTC  

Whites without College Degrees have lower turnout in midterms compared to Whites with College degrees

2018-09-23 02:10:36 UTC  

back in the day, that didn't really matter

2018-09-23 02:10:46 UTC  

but now, given the shift in education support, that can help the Dems in some districts

2018-09-23 02:12:23 UTC  

Which is funny because the only thing Dems offer them in return for their votes is taxing more of their money and shaming them for ā€œwhites privilegeā€ BS

2018-09-23 02:12:44 UTC  

the one asterix on this, is that White College Educated is young skewed
