Cmon, a 99% chance?
We've had a miss of 9% in one of the past 20 elections (Dewey vs Truman).
To say a 4% lead has a 99% chance of holding is just silly.

hate to break it to ya, but things have changed since 1948


Hate to break it to you, Bush had a 4 point lead on Gore in November 2000 and lost the popular vote.
That's a 4% miss right there, just 4 elections ago.
