I got all the state right. My score was not up to the top level because of percentages, which wasn't a motivator to me prior to entering my predictions. I just did my best to correctly predict carriage of all 50 states plus District of Columbia. I will provide a link:

There was plenty of b.s. in those polls (especially by the incompetence at Gallup) that threw numerous people off their estimates and, ultimately, predictions.

A lot of people didn't envision a model for final results of the map. And many didn't consider voting pattern of states plus historical average of states carried being over the 50-percent mark by presidential winners.
