As a result, I do not know whether we will be able to publish the needle. There are good reasons to bet against it, though perhaps there are scenarios where things are running super smoothly; alternately, we hit bugs at the start and there's no chance.

if the nyt workers are able to successfully prevent the needle from being published it will be one of the greatest achievements for organized labor since the invention of the weekend

Even clothes have to be political. Ridiculous.

Skateboard-riding ballot mules, Philly registering non-citizens, fake addresses, busted voting machines, nefarious plots operating in plain site. Welcome to Election Day 2024 where officials are bracing for a flood of disinformation. Brought to you by X. nbcnews.com/politics/2024-el…

This is like when I put myself into NBA2K.
Mark Few got his son a couple of garbage time minutes off the bench and all it got him was on the receiving end of one of the worst posters I’ve ever seen.

Call me crazy but maybe decrying that gov't overreach killed a squirrel while ignoring women killed by abortion bans isn't a terrific move for your double digit gender gap teapawt.net/JudiciaryGOP/status/18…

They all went from saying Clingan wasn't special to we're going to be screwed without him. The goal posts only move this way for UConn. It's incredible.

A 17-year-old — wearing a T-shirt featuring an image of Trump raising his middle finger in front of an American flag background — was arrested for punching a 70 year old woman who was Harris supporter, knocking her off her feet. tcpalm.com/story/news/local/…

Yes there are some confounders here. No I’m not going to try to control for them. Also I sure hope the Fed measures state level inflation directly and I’m not just modeling the Fed’s model. No, I’m not going to check. Anyway check out my univariate n=43 model.
Replying to @NateSilver538
There are some confounders here, but the inflation thing is actually statistically significant! Each additional $100 of inflation in a state since January 2021 predicts a further 1.6 swing against Harris in our polling average vs. the Biden-Trump margin in 2020.
