Assuming there will be a clear hierarchy & division of responsibilities & no one will treat this as a way to write themselves seven figure consulting checks while forgetting to do ad buys, lol.

As soon as someone tells him that Obama gave Biden the Presidential Medal of Freedom he’s going to think it’s a radical left fake news award.

lightpole posted:Each sample point should help decrease margin of error but I don't care enough to actually dig out textbooks. Each n has an independent margin of error but in aggregate that margin should decrease since its being confirmed by multiple independent ns. Or something like that. Yeah, in principle the thing about MOEs is that error should be distributed around the true mean on both sides. So in the example given, if the real mean is K + 3, then there should be an equal chance of getting K-1 and K+4 in any given poll. In a "smooth frictionless sphere" kind of model, getting multiple K+3 results randomly is unlikely and reinforces the idea that the real mean is close to K+3. The issue is that nobody knows what the hell is going on these days with polling as far as real-world sampling issues goes, so the theory may lag reality by a bit.

There's also that real world polling errors are probably not independent. (which you need for several samples narrowing the margin) See "shy trump voters", etc. This is largely why "reputable" polling had Hillary at some insane number (98%?) while 538 assumed some amount of polling error dependence and had it at 70/30.

Nate Silver does not deserve nearly as much flak as he took over the polls being wrong in 2016, when 538 was perhaps the most correct about underlying sample bias and warning that Trump had a reasonable chance. However he deserves more flak than he currently gets since he decided being decent at statistics means he is now a politics knower and regularly shits out terrible opinions.

Details on Harris' economic platform she announced today.quote:Amid more than a dozen new economic policies aimed at “lowering costs for American families,” the most striking proposals were for the elimination of medical debt for millions of Americans; the “first-ever” ban on price gouging for groceries and food; a cap on prescription drug costs; a $25,000 subsidy for first-time home buyers; and a child tax credit that would provide $6,000 per child to families for the first year of a baby’s life.

The margin of error published alongside a poll only accounts for potential lumpy sampling.

The only thing I actually remember from my statistics class was the opening to the YouTube videos we watched while doing our homework was something like "Youre a totally great and fantastic person and very smart and wonderful and don't kill yourself statistics is very very difficult."

According to Trump's legally required financial disclosure forms, he made $300k on MAGA Bibles. That's sad, but I can't decide for which reason.
