It would be interesting to be able to take a deeper dive and calculate how accurate the predictions were not only in terms of predicting the winner but also in terms of predicting the vote share for each candidate/vote margin.

Fivethirtyeight made such numeric predictions, but unfortunately most predictors aren't bold enough to offer up numbers, only picks of winners and losers.
