I'm getting seriously annoyed with AI and their phone lines. Last week I redialed for Glambert and one of the votes went to Gokey. WTF? Same thing just
happened for Kris. Very unhappy about this.

The DI maps aren't making any sense.. How can a line have more busies than the number of calls??
e.g. California - Adam line 1 - 143 votes and 218 busies?? |

Well DI isn't predicting a winner and I doubt they will. It's way too close to call.
See, this is why DI gets a bad rep - because people don't understand how it works, and its limitations.. In reality: DI does a pretty good damn job and people are just stupid. |

Looking at Geopredictions, Adam is predicted to win 29 states, with Kris predicted to win 18 states right now

Most of the states that Adam is winning (east coast) generally have a higher population compared to the ones Kris is winning, I would think.
Getting busy signals, only gotten two votes in for Kris so far - from California. First time this season I've really gotten them, usually the lines are wide open. |

An Electoral College map would probably give a good idea of state by state population. I'm way to lazy to look for one though.

Why are we caring about any of the 49 states. We all know it comes down to

That tiny state yielded this:

Kris has been appx 1.2 points ahead since CA started.
Kris = 64.15 Adam = 62.98 CA hasn't helped Adam as much as I thought it would. Thankfully. |

highwind, a single state means nothing. It's the whole US that matters.. They are not predicting a winner.. Look at the margin of error, and see that
they are both in yellow and in danger. Once one of them goes to green; only then are they predicting a winner.. anything else means nothing. Like I said -
people don't understand how DI works, and that's why they bitch at it.. out of their own ignorance. Statistics is not a hard science, and DI does a
very good job with the limited data it has..
And this isn't an election people.. It's not like Kris/Adam will lose all his votes in a state the other wins. |

I used up the rest of my month's text messages voting for Adam and have managed to get thru 18 times out of 30 on 03 out here in CA.

I got in 512 text votes for Kris on my cell.
The land line I used was busy for Kris on every single call - I redialed this phone each time I sent a text vote. |
