I think it's a stretch to surmise because this result didn't flip that the needle isn't even moving.

Sure, election results are fundamentally binary. One side wins or the other side wins. But this is a much much smaller piece in a much larger puzzle.

Had there not been a public event, I don't know that anyone would have even looked at this result or even considered it to be flippable in the first place. Just became a pie in the sky idea because of the bonkers last 40 hours of the race.

Responses:

Clinton lost Montana by 20.5%. Quist lost by 7%. Apply a 13.5% change across the country and see if the needle moves. -- (edited) - volnelk May 26, 06:35 5

  - even 7, or an average of it; the point being the GOP shouldn't be patting each other's asses over this -- nm - Beaker May 26, 06:39 2

      - right, regardless of what is going on Dems can't just post funny memes and assume the GOP base is viewing them and buying into it -- nm* - Beaker May 26, 06:47
