Open Thread — 7 Oct

by Carl Ballard — Friday, 10/7/16, 6:12 am

It’s always a bit tough to figure out when companies make decisions that activists have been pushing, how much is because of those activists, and how much is the stated reasons. So Shell won’t be sending oil trains to Anacortes.

I don’t know how much oil prices had to do with it as the company says, and how much activists and environmentalists won the day. It’s great for Anacortes, and good for everywhere between there and the Bakken.

On top of the instrumental benefits of getting the hell around much faster, Sound Transit expansion will be good for the environment. It’s sort of duh, but it’s nice to be able to read some specifics. It’s nice to be able to say it will cut over 360 million vehicle miles per year, save 800,000 tons of annual carbon emissions. Rather than just I assume it must be because driving is still driving.

Live Blogging the VP Debate

by Darryl — Tuesday, 10/4/16, 6:00 pm

Because, why not.

Feel free to add your own commentary to the discussion thread.

This line, interestingly, is also what Trump considers foreplay. #VPDebate https://t.co/82581jr86r

— Grace Parra (@GraceParra360) October 5, 2016

6:04: “Kaine wins the coin toss…people are saying the coin is rigged, so rigged. Believe me!”

6:08: Donald Trump certainly isn’t “stifled” by taxes!

6:09: Pence seems to be rambling.

6:10: I see Kaine is wearing his commie child-slaying arugula-eaters flag pin this evening. Typical.

The GOP Just Published A Bunch Of Post-Debate ~Blog Posts~ Before The Debate Started https://t.co/zY1PCzq7M1 https://t.co/KCK72IsTiU

"Gov. Pence, can you pinpoint the exact moment you decided to sell your soul to the devil?" #VPDebate

— shauna (@goldengateblond) October 5, 2016

6:16: Somebody is going to be fired. The idiot who mixed up their ties.

6:18: Pence’s blue tie with that background makes his hair look blue. He should be a poll worker on election day!

Sure, it looks bad when Kaine interrupts, but is there any other way to get a word in against Pence's relentless filibustering? #VPDebate

— (((Goldy))) (@GoldyHA) October 5, 2016

Pence promising 4% economic growth with same tax cuts for the rich that crashed the economy last time #VPDebate #DoesNotCompute

— The Daily Edge (@TheDailyEdge) October 5, 2016

6:21: Now that we have gotten past the early interupty start, both candidates are effectively filibustering.

6:23: Time for the “bikini graph”:

FACT: Under Pres. Obama, we've had 78 straight months of private sector job growth = 15.1 million jobs! #VPdebate pic.twitter.com/3l2XgkfGqr

— Sally Kohn (@sallykohn) October 5, 2016

Shorter Pence — You have statistics? Well, I have homespun anecdotes about down-on-their-luck Americans!

— Chris Megerian (@ChrisMegerian) October 5, 2016

6:25: “Donald Trump has created thousands of unpaid subcontractors.”

6:27: Pence, “There they go again…” Laughter erupts.

They should have gone with Warren and Gingrich. This debate would have been much more entertaining. #VPDebate

— Samuel Minter (@abulsme) October 5, 2016

Mike Pence: We will save Social Security by letting Donald Trump continue taking all the deductions he's entitled to and paying $0 #VPDebate

— The Daily Edge (@TheDailyEdge) October 5, 2016

6:35: I hate anecdotes in politics.

Let's please have more forums for wealthy white men to argue about whether or not racial bias against black men exists. #VPDebate

— Grace Parra (@GraceParra360) October 5, 2016

As a radio host Pence described himself as "Rush Limbaugh on decaf." Probably more like "Rush Limbaugh on life support." https://t.co/u6q1vxBJ05

— Paul Constant (@paulconstant) October 5, 2016

6:40: What makes Trump and Pence such a good team: One of them constantly pops Viagra, the other, Ambien.

Um…Pence – half (or more) of your supporters ARE a basket of deplorables. #VPDebate

— Michael Maddux (@michaeljmaddux) October 5, 2016

Kaine is absolutely right regarding Clinton apologies/regrets on comments she made compared to lack of same from Trump. #VPDebate

— Ken Rudin (@kenrudin) October 5, 2016

#VPDebate Pence seems not to have heard a lot that has gone on in the Trump campaign thus far. He seems so innocent.

Kaine: "Donald Trump can't start a Twitter war with Miss Universe without shooting off his foot" #VPDebate

— Roll Call (@rollcall) October 5, 2016

6:49: Contra Pence, Obama did not bring bin Laden “to Justice”. He had him executed.

#VPDebate Kaine says something that Trump said, Pence shakes his head. His head would have spun of his shoulders if he heard Trump say it.

— Paula Poundstone (@paulapoundstone) October 5, 2016

Pence is denying that Trump said the things he said. Kaine not calling out effectively.

— Josh Kraushaar (@HotlineJosh) October 5, 2016

Pence just said it's "absolutely false" that Trump proposed restricting Muslims from entering the U.S.

— Greg Sargent (@ThePlumLineGS) October 5, 2016

Did someone say Russia? Hello! pic.twitter.com/4tyEHunght

— Chris Cillizza (@TheFix) October 5, 2016

7:00: Does Donald know that Pence is saying all these anti-Russia things?!?

It should be noted that Pence's foreign policy, as he's described in this debate, is not Trump's foreign policy.

Umm your candidate literally repeatedly asked why we cant use nuclear weapons, Pence.

— Seattlish (@seattlish) October 5, 2016

There's nothing cuter than Mike Pence trying to assert that Clinton is more low-brow than Trump.

— Ken Tremendous (@KenTremendous) October 5, 2016

Hand to God, here's how it's gonna go if I'm ever a moderator and men talk over me. #VPDebate pic.twitter.com/FNxkQK2wd1

Putin isn't voting in this election but he got more attention than women did in this debate.

7:18: Clearly, the Clintons read the bestselling “Foundations for Dummies”

Only one of the candidates' charitable foundations has been ordered to stop fundraising. (Hint: It's not the Clinton Foundation.) #VPDebate

7:26: Shorter Pence: “I’m an anti-abortion fanatic!”

Mike Pence explains why his faith makes him against abortion, which Jesus never mentioned, and for the death penalty, which Jesus opposed.

— John Fugelsang (@JohnFugelsang) October 5, 2016

7:30: Statement of the night: Pence, “Look, he is not a polished politician.”

Deeply Christian Mike Pence reminds you that Donald Trump, who wants to bring back torture, stands for the right to life.

— John Fugelsang (@JohnFugelsang) October 5, 2016

7:32: I was hoping for more debate on Donald Trump’s “personal Vietnam.”

Reminds me of Bonnie Raitt's line, "Jody & Chico and his ding dang deal" https://t.co/lmBCIK455j

Poll Analysis: Clinton surges post-debate

by Darryl — Monday, 10/3/16, 6:01 pm

Clinton
Trump
92.5% probability of winning
7.5% probability of winning
Mean of 300 electoral votes
Mean of 238 electoral votes


Electoral College Map

Alabama Alaska Arizona Arkansas California Colorado Connecticut Delaware Florida Georgia Hawaii Idaho Illinois Indiana Iowa Kansas Kentucky Lousiana Maine Maryland Massachusettes Michigan Minnesota Mississippi Missouri Montana Nebraska Nevada New Hampshire New Jersey New Mexico New York North Carolina North Dakota Ohio Oklahoma Oregon Pennsylvania Rhode Island South Carolina South Dakota Tennessee Texas Utah Vermont Virginia D.C. Washington West Virginia Wisconsin Wyoming

Electoral College Map

Georgia Alaska Arizona Arkansas California Colorado Delaware Connecticut Florida Mississippi Alabama Hawaii Idaho Illinois Indiana Iowa Kansas Kentucky Louisiana Maine Maryland Massachusetts Michigan Minnesota Missouri Montana Nebraska Nevada New Hampshire New Jersey New Mexico New York North Carolina North Dakota Ohio Oklahoma Oregon Pennsylvania Rhode Island South Carolina South Dakota Tennessee Texas Utah Vermont Virginia D.C. Washington West Virginia Wisconsin Wyoming

We have now had a few days for post-debate polls to trickle out. My previous analysis, four days ago, was almost entirely pre-debate polls. It showed Clinton with a 79.2% probability of winning the election with, on average, 288 electoral votes.

There have been about 20 or so post-debate state head-to-head polls released, mostly in competitive states. The results confirm the general wisdom that Clinton gained the edge from the first debate.

Today, after 100,000 simulated elections, Clinton wins 92,456 times and Trump wins 7,544 times (including the 1,007 ties). Clinton received (on average) 300 to Trump’s 238 electoral votes. In an election held now, Clinton would have a 92.5% probability of winning and Trump would have a 7.5% probability of winning.

A couple of states showed some interesting changes:

In Colorado one poll aged out and we got two new polls today that both have Clinton up by +11%. This has moved the probability from 51.4% for Trump to 83.7% for Clinton. The state is still quite close, but the magnitude of Clinton’s lead in two polls suggest that Clinton now has the advantage.

clintontrump03sep16-03oct16colorado

The story is similar in Florida one poll aged out, and three new polls were released, all with Clinton leading. Clinton’s leads, however, are smaller at 4%, +0.2% and 5%. Clinton is leading in 6 of the 10 current polls. Trump had a 60.6% probability of taking Florida 4 days ago, now Clinton is up with a 62.9% probability. The state is still mighty close!

clintontrump03sep16-03oct16florida

Trump gains a bit in Iowa, not because of any new polls—there have been none since the debate. Rather one poll aged out. Trump leads in 2 of the 3 current Iowa polls.

Nevada gains two new polls with Clinton up by +6% and +1%. As a result Trump’s probability of winning of 66.8% four days ago has shrunk to 47.6%. This is, basically, a tie.

clintontrump03sep16-03oct16nevada

New Hampshire is over-polled because of a competitive Senate race. We lost one poll and gained two new ones in 4 days with Clinton up +6% and +7%. Clinton’s chances go up a bit to a 99.1% probability of winning today.

We have one new poll in New Jersey for a total of 2 polls. This one has Clinton up 6.4%, and so Clinton moves from a 78.3% probability to a 92.5% probability of taking the state.

In New Mexico, one old poll was replaced by a new (but small) poll that has Clinton up +4%. The previous poll had her at +9%. As a result, Clinton’s chances have dropped from 99.4% to 77.3% probability of winning the state now. The polling history suggests that Clinton is very likely to take New Mexico:

clintontrump03sep16-03oct16new-mexico

Two new polls, and the loss of an old poll in North Carolina have strengthened Clinton’s tenuous hold on the state. She now has lead in five consecutive NC polls, but the margins are small (+1%, +3%, +1%, +2.6% and +1%). Her chances have gone from 52.2% to 56.7%. Still, pretty much a tie.

clintontrump03sep16-03oct16north-carolina

In Pennsylvania we lose two polls and gain one new one. This has tightened the race slightly, but Clinton still has a 94.9% probability of taking the state. The polling history does suggest a tightening of the race, but Clinton leads the last 5 polls by small margins (+4%, +3%, +1%, +2%, +2%).

clintontrump03sep16-03oct16pennsylvania

Virginia loses one poll and gains two new ones. Four days ago, Clinton had a 99.7% probability of winning. Today, she takes all but 28 of the 100,000 simulated elections.

The long term trends in this race can be seen from a series of elections simulated every seven days using polls from 03-Oct-2015 to 03-Oct-2016, and including polls from the preceding month (FAQ). As we’ve seen before, Clinton is on the move upward, after hitting a “low” that still had her most likely winning the election.

Note that the polls have yet to “speak” to Donald Trump’s other problems that arose after the debate—his 3am tweet about an Hispanic model (Alicia Machado) and her non-existent “sextape”, Trump’s own soft-core porn video, Trump’s suggestion that his opponent is cheating on her spouse, Trump’s partial 1995 tax forms showing over $900 million losses, the Trump Foundation’s potential legal problems, his badly-stated comment about Vets with PTSD, and a bunch of high profile newspaper non-endorsements. If these issues affect the polls, we’ll see the effects over the next week or two.

Of course, things may not continue to favor Clinton. Wednesday is supposedly the “October Surprise” that will un-do her.

An animated sequence of maps and electoral vote distributions can be seen here
