What’s the issue with pointing out how uncertainty in the input variables (reliability of polling in local races along with idiosyncratic incertainty in turnout patterns) impacts the range of possible outcomes? Of course no one knows for sure...

My argument is that we don't know *to an unusual extent* what will happen in two weeks, and that's not being well communicated here despite Nate's efforts. The wealth of detail suggests more knowledge, not less.

Fair point. Great work this election cycle, btw. The transparency you’ve provided on tech PACs has been really eye opening.
