FiveThirtyEight founder Nate Silver predicts who will be president but says not to trust his prediction

I hear ya, friend. I already mailed in my vote in unchangingly blue MA, knowing that my support for Kamala is (mathematically speaking) meaningless. But you gotta do it.

I do think that, besides better reflecting what people actually want and not being some bullshit racist artifact, removing the Electoral College would drive voter engagement. I remember hearing interviews back in ye olden times, when they’d pretty much call the election on the night of, people on the west coast would lament that they wouldn’t even bother to go to the polls because it had already been decided by the time dinner was finished (even if that was not strictly true).
