Just to preface things, I was being facetious and hyperbolic, I dont think it’ll actually be >1%, more likely 3-4%. In a general sense I completely agree with you about the EC but I meant the popular vote margin rather than the EC margin which tends to be significantly broader because of the less granular, more binary structure of the system.
