Looks like Nate Silver was pretty spot on again.


Indeed. Sam Wang as well. Polls were using a +6 democratic turnout and sure enough that's what happened. The reason I doubted polls throughout was because I couldn't fathom +6 dem turnout rates, especially after reading Pew Research Center's stats on likely voters (76% republican to 62% democrat). Truly fascinating how accurate polls/models have become. Congrats to Obama, now work toward your promises from 2008 and everyone will be pleased.

Its almost like pollsters actually know what they're doing. : )

Edit: Where are you getting those numbers for Pew? I can't find them.


I think Pew actually pulled that article, because I cannot find it. I was able to find their chart via google images that someone apparently had uploaded to facebook lol.

 

Here it is. Interesting numbers.
