The "nightmare scenario" Trump 269 Harris 269 What happens? Each state has 1 vote. House gets to pick the president Trump becomes president Senate picks the VP Walz becomes vice president Please vet me on this
To be much clearer, each of the state delegations in the House each get one vote. That vote is determined by which party has a majority in the state delegation. That is currently 28-22 but could get closer to 25-25 if AZ, GA, and WI flip this year. I do not think it is an easy Trump win if we hit the often spoken of but never realized 269-269.
Trafalgar's demographics are the same month after month down to the tenth. They are untrustworthy for good reason
If you bet on Trump ro sweep Penn, Mich and Wisc weeks ago it paid 10:1 Barnes had Trump getting 312-326 electoral votes months ago.

lmao ya that’s what history says happens. what’s funny is those gop friendly polls have been the most accurate every cycle since 2016. meanwhile, the few bad ones who have Harris up happened to also be some of the worst the last 4 cycles. For example, Morning Consult who just a few days ago said Harris plus 4 was off by 4.8 in 2020. IPSOS was off by 4.6 and their most recent poll has Harris up by 3. Rasmussen and Traflagar were much more accurate but sure they are the ones skewing the polls. Atlasintel was the best of 2020 and they currently have Trump +3.
This map is insane in showing how close the race is. Using this map, if PA, WI and MI go blue, which is entirely plausible, and everything else stays the same, it’s a Kamala win with 270-268. Holy crap!!!
The fact that it’s even close and Trump has a solid shot at winning is depressing in and of itself. It’s like nobody in this country has learned anything since 2016, lol. Let’s put demented, racist Grandpa Simpson in the White House to go along with all of his awful people he surrounds himself with, such as Stephen Miller. What could possibly go wrong? Education is important, people.
The problem with that methodology is that it assumes that a candidate who is ahead but within the margin of error will carry the state. You can always ask President Hillary Clinton how accurate that methodology is at actually predicting the results of a presidential election. You can also ask Senators Adam Laxalt and Mehmet Oz whether polls in which a candidate is ahead but within the margin of error are accurate predictors of the final results of an election.
