Tomorrow is election day, any predictions?
In my opinion, it is too hard to predict at this stage, we will know the outcome soon.
Things counting against Trump, is behavior and no filter.
Things counting against Kamala, is track record of current Administration plus she is a woman. I know "woman" should not be a factor, but many Americans are not ready.
As far as the polls are concerned, in statistics we believe a forecast with 80% accuracy needs a 0.05 sampling rate.
Last election, approximately 160 million people voted, so at the needed sampling rate of 0.05, it means an accurate prediction of 80% if there were 8 million people covered by the poll. We are not even close, so I totally disregard the polls.
Gut feel = Trump, but I may be wrong this time.
