I’m not sure about Kamala Harris and her chances in Texas, but I will say this. I think Ted Cruz is in real trouble.

@lionel_trolling If I told you that I was racing a cheetah this weekend, would you say it's impossible to determine who is likely to win because I've never raced a cheetah and never will again?

im sure somebody who understands math is gonna set me straight but it seems to me like probabilities can only apply to repeatable events, which an election is not

@seskoog @JMilesColeman Pollsters can be wrong, but to put out a poll so far from what people were expecting shows integrity even if it ends up being way off.

@PoorestG @Politics_Polls @NateSilver538 14% higher chance is not the same as being "up 14 points". He's up less than a point in the polling average. Harris still has a good shot at winning the state. It's just not quite a 50/50 shot if you believe the numbers.

You can tell my election stress is high when I'm eagerly awaiting the results of my school district's *student vote* so I can use it as some bellwether of political support.

@metroadlib I do not think he was sarcastic. I think he genuinely think Hinchcliffe is funny...in the correct setting. A roast is the correct setting. A political rally is not.

@James_Holzhauer It is kinda funny that I don't know any Jeopardy contestants that would vote for Trump (or at least haven't admitted as much), but I know dozens that are voting for Harris.

@OurHighMinds @stevenspohn I just don't think it's a well-crafted joke. If your intended reaction is for people to gasp and laugh in shock that you said something so horrible, then maybe the joke just isn't that funny. I like my jokes to sound like they're not read off of a Cards Against Humanity card.

You can be mad at me for not sticking to gaming topics and accessibility like so many of you would like me to. But this. Why are we okay with this? Your vote says whether or not you support this kind of thing. Racism, veiled as jokes, shouldn't be okay. But don't worry, I will lose followers and be called snowflake for advocating for equality, even though advocacy is likely the reason they followed me in the first place.

@OurHighMinds @stevenspohn What could be the difference between Tony Hinchcliffe telling a joke about Puerto Ricans and George Lopez telling a joke about Mexicans? Hmmm, yeah, I just can't put my finger on it.

I see we're pronouncing the "l" in "Norfolk." The sound is nails on a chalkboard. It's like the "l" in "salmon," guys. Just hop right on over it.

@NateSilver538 That could mean most polls come in at +4. You would caution us, then, to ignore that result?

Polls over the rest of the campaign will probably be statistically indistinguishable from a random number generator that picks numbers between +4 and -4 in the 7 key swing states.
