Got a question about candidates' horoscopes.  In your methodology, do they predict popular votes or electoral college votes?

Incidently, that is my quibble with Lichtstein's 13 keys predictor.  Since 2000, he's been saying that his keys predicted who would win the popular vote, but now he's being lionized because he predicted Trump's victory, even though Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by nearly 3 million votes.  He's trying to have it both ways -- either his model incorrectly predicted 2000 or it incorrectly predicted 2016.

I saw him interviewed today, and he hedged to the extent that marginal cases can be wrongly predicted.  At the moment, he's predicting Trump's impeachment.  Let's see how that goes.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
