People are misunderstanding this. The Clinton 99% people were obviously wrong. They could have had a great model and a correct prediction based on the information they had, but then their information was lacking.

It's like the question, what are the odds of the next card in a pack of cards being a K? You might say 1/13. But what if the previous cards were A 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 J Q? Now it's overwhelmingly likely you have an unshuffled pack - and the probability of the next card being K is nearly 100%.
