Because models are about probabilities, not being "right." Hence why there was still a 16% chance Trump would win Wisconsin. If there's a 16% chance you miss an attack in Fire Emblem you don't go "IMPOSSIBLE!"
His purpose is to analyze all the data and come up with a model that predicts the winner.

What you are saying is that the 99% Hillary models were just as right as his because they predicted 1% of the time Trump would win and it was that 1%.

That's not the purpose of the models. The purpose of the models is to correctly predict with all available data.
