I am not very interested who Nate Silver will vote for; I am not very enthusiastic about Newsweek’s choice of title. I think that’s probably by far the least-worthwhile piece of information in the article.

But what I do think is interesting is that he’s got an assessment of the impact of the presidential debate up:

He also discussed the candidates’ win probabilities following their debate on Tuesday: “Before the debate, it had been like Trump 54, Harris 46. These are not vote shares. These are win probabilities. And after, it’s 50-50,” Silver said.

“She, right now, is at 49 percent of the vote in polls,” Silver said on the podcast. “To win, she has to get to 51 percent—51 because she has a disadvantage in all likelihood in the Electoral College.”

Despite having previously shown Trump as surging in the polls, Silver’s model now has him neck and neck with Harris.

    I agree it’s not very noteworthy but he’s voting Harris
