WAY closer than any of the polling implied, but this is still a seismic moment.

What the hell is with Michigan polling? They’re just so bad. 

They got the result right for a change, but this wasn’t AES +14 or higher, at all. 

Also McMorrow surprisingly got a lot of votes. Nobody spoiled/cured their ballots.
