>>>- Silver put Trump winning at 35%, which is not **that** impossible.

>My memory is that all the pollsters had HRC trouncing Trump far more emphatically than that. Trump may not respect NYT but on the night it was one of the first to show the strong likelihood of Trump's win. Silver was middling- even after NYT gave Trump over 90% chance, Silver was still proposing close to even stevens. Others added CA to HRC's tally from the start but refused to count some flyover states until after midnight. I saw one reporter stuttering and near incoherent as Florida results became impossible to deny followed by Pennsylvania.
The article refered to polls ahead of voting. The 35% IIRC was 1 - 3 nights before voting started. My bad for not being precise enough on that detail ;-)
