02:42:03 Retweeted @entpnerd 02:33:21 @ElectionGraphs Been seeing large ups and downs in graph for Trump vs. Clinton in 2 days, starting well before the debates. What's going on?
02:43:51 .@entpnerd Florida, Ohio, North Carolina all very close. Single polls can move them across center line & cause big electoral college moves. in reply to entpnerd
02:45:45 .@entpnerd There were good polls for C that moved them toward her with midpoints around the 18th-20th. Good ones for T right before debate. in reply to ElectionGraphs
02:47:43 .@entpnerd Actual % moves not that large, but since those 3 states crossed zero, big EC moves. Look at Tipping pt chart 4 more stable trend. in reply to ElectionGraphs
02:51:37 .@entpnerd As long as there are states with large num of EV right near center line, small moves in state avg will cause big EC moves. in reply to ElectionGraphs
02:55:38 .@entpnerd As of right now (I’m still in midst of a round of poll updating) there are states w/ 153 EV under 5% margin. 95 EV under 2% marg. in reply to ElectionGraphs
03:01:39 Retweeted @cody_k 03:01:07 @ElectionGraphs Same thing at RCP with volatility. Big EV states back and forth… crossing sides.
