      She was predicted to win the popular vote…

      And she did.

      Looking at statewide polling and a lot of battleground states were coinflips.

      The problem was anyone mentioning that got screeched at for wanting trump to win…

        But this article is saying it’s based on the EC,

        Nate Silver’s latest forecast now gives Vice President Kamala Harris a slight edge in the Electoral College
        The model shows Harris securing 271 Electoral College votes to Trump’s 267.

        YES (no predictions)

        Honestly there should be zero results posted until all votes are counted. Counting as they come in influences later voters, especially in western time zones.

        I thought there was an election in the not too distant past where the news declared a winner before Hawaii even finished voting.

          I disagree with the “no predictions” part, but fully 100% agree with not releasing any results until all votes are tallied.

            What would they base predictions on without results?
