Fivethirtyeight is still around? I'm surprised they didn't just absorb it or abandon it after firing Nate & all the good writers.
Wait, Nate Silver isn't part of it anymore? Well that ruined any reason for me to pay attention to it.
Not only that, the election models belonged solely to Nate and not the company. So they fired him, and lost what he used to make them famous.
Bought by abc. "Site" is still there, but redirects and so far doesn't have the same quality of content. BUT to be fair "poll tracking" just might start until primary close.
