Some of us political junkies check daily Nate Silver’s predictions over at fivethirtyeight.com. In Maryland Silver gives Clinton a 99.8% chance of winning with Trump having a 0.1% chance of a win (don’t know who gets the other .1%). That makes Maryland the bluest state in the nation, even DC isn’t as blue. In the District Hillary has a 99.6% chance of winning and Trump stands at .4%. One has to wonder how a Republican was elected Governor of Maryland! And he has the second highest approval rating in the US!
Other very Blue states include California where Clinton has a 99.4% chance of winning. In Massachusetts Hillary’s chances are 98.6%.
On the Red side, Alabama leads with a 99.6% chance Trump will win, followed by Oklahoma where Silver says there’s a 99.2% chance of a Trump win. In both Idaho and Tennessee Trump’s odds are 98.7%, followed by Louisiana at 98.2%. Arkansas, Kentucky and West Virginia all stand at 98% for Trump.
