florida's margin exceeds >3.5% and gets called around 9 or 10 pm EST, certainly by 11

NM will vote to the right of VA/CO.


Welcome to the forum! I'm glad you're not afraid to make bold predictions.
Thank you!

- Trump wins FL by more than 2 points, but loses both Georgia and North Carolina
- Iowa and Georgia are both razor thin close states, Trump ends up carrying Iowa while Biden carries Georgia
- Ohio goes for Biden

idk man i dont see trump winning this
Why do you think FL will vote so much further to the right of GA?
-MT is closer than it was in 2016, like Trump +8
-Trump's EC advantage grows significantly, with a bunch of states voting a few points to the right of the country
-Democrats lose the senate, and partisanship wins out, except in ME
-The house is closer than expected but Ds hold on
-Biden wins FL
-ME swings heavily in either direction
-MI votes to the left of MN, unless Klobs is the VP
-Polling underestimates Biden a bit
-Democrats have dissapointing results in TX
-NV votes simillar to AZ
-Someone dies in a competative house or senate race, causing a flip
-Biden flips NE-2, and it goes to him by a few points
-The October suprise seems bad for Ds and seems to help Trump but doesn't cahnge the outcome
-The economic recovery helps Trump a bit
-On election day, the weather is really crappy somewhere, causing a weird result
-States that didn't get hit as hard by COVID swing to Trump a bit
-NC votes to the right of FL
-No one on this forum will predict the exact outcome correctly

This aged poorly
The last one is a very interesting point. Curious to see if you still stand by it?

-PA and MI vote to the right of Atlas consensus
-Trump wins GA and TX by a few points (this should be a common sense take, but sadly that is lacking on Atlas)
-Florida's within a half point and both get around 49%
-Biden wins ME-02, getting over 50% without need for IRV count

so what's the atlas consensus on pennsylvania?

New bold predictions:

-Biden wins TX, but at least one state on the 413 map goes to Trump
-Maine-Sen goes to Gideon by about the same amount as AZ-Sen goes to Kelly
-MI is the most likely rust belt state to flip
-Cornyn has a real scare
-Republicans call bull on the election saying Democrats did “too well”
-Partisanship wins out in most of KS, AK, MT, and SC senate races, but at least one is unexpectedly close
-Polling is largely pretty accurate and isn’t off universally in one canidate’s favor
-Gary Peters has somewhat of a scare
-NC-Sen votes in lockstep with NC on the Presidential level
-ACB will suddenly start seeing an increase in media
-At least one of MT, SC, and AK are closer than expected
-NE-2 easily goes to Biden
-Nunes loses or comes close to losing
The third example is not really "bold" is it? Unless you're defining Midwest as something other than WI, MI, and PA about.

I really like the bolded ones too

What are your bold predictions for the House, since I haven't seen to many of those on here?

Republicans get absolutely slaughtered in the Senate, at least one out of Harrison, Bollier, Hegar (!!) wins. And probably 2 of them

Biden win New Hampshire and Maine by more than Obama did in 2012 (6 and 15 points respectively). And especially notable as that was a 12-point lean to the left of the nation back then, mind you

1. NC and FL vote different ways.
2. bullock carries MT sen by under 3 points but more than tester won by in 2018

Also: P.S. trump could totally still win the EC overall, while losing NC to biden

Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina vote within 1 percent of each other in terms of margin.

NE-02 votes more than 10 points to the left of ME-02.
Is that really bold though? It was only 1 point away from happening in 2016 and trends will continue this year again too.

Some people on Atlas seem to think that Biden will win Maine by double digits, and ME-02 will snap back somewhat from 2016. Among the "trends are usually real" group though, this is basically the consensus. I tried to pick things that I was confident would happen, which made it hard to get truly bold predictions, since my predictions tend to be near the Atlas median.
Nice, and thank you for explaining!

I'm kind of the opposite -- going for things that are truly "bold" even if they only have like an 25% of happening, just because the rest of this forum thinks they're at say a 10% chance.

There won't be an Iowa caucus 2020-like fiasco such as the one we saw on the left's side earlier this year in Feb. 3

We are never gonna have a 413 EC landslide, we are too polarized for this 300 EC votes and NC, GA and VA  now are more D leaning than both TX/FL

Make a prediction about the 2020 election, after the 2020 election has already gotten held ... not THAT's What I call, f---in bold!
