    Didn't this guy predict Hillary would beat Trump? Nevertheless Drudge has Silver's prediction as his main headline.

    Remember, Nate became “Lord of the Algorithms” because he successfully called Obama’s 2008 victory, which was pretty obvious to anyone even remotely paying attention.

    Drudge is a Never Trumpet. Keep in mind Silver predicted Hillary would be President.
How did that work out?

Yup. The first time I went to his site in about a year was yesterday, when someone on FR asked if his site was down. Out of curiosity I looked at it. It was slow but online. I just took a brief glance than closed the page.

    Good. This makes for overconfidence which will keep some ‘rats home.
 
To: Proud White Trump Supporter
    Yep. He had Hillery winning about the same percentage odds.

    There is not one actual NUMBER (early votes, absentee votes, etc) ANYWHERE that lines up with this result.
So far, they ALL line up with Rs holding the House by 5-15 seats.
This is all crap polling, just like in 2016. I thought we had crushed these guys, but they are back. They ought to be sued.

    This is the same Nate Silver who predicted Hillary would take 374 electoral votes and win in a landslide!

    So the odds he gives the Republicans of keeping the house are within a couple percentage points of the odds he gave Trump of winning in 2016 as of the morning of election day.
Looks like good news to me.
 
To: Proud White Trump Supporter
    Thank you Nate for this prediction. I know I will sleep better tonight.
Knowing that you are an incorrect idiot who could not correctly tell if the sun will come up tomorrow, I’m glad you came up with this ridiculous drivel.
 
To: LS
    Just another ploy to suppress Rep voting.

    I told you do not go to the Drudge report it is just a Democrat propaganda outlet and nothing more.
