Nate Silver, editor in chief of FiveThirtyEight, went on a Twitter rant earlier this week lambasting the recent excitement over general-election polls. According to Silver, Clinton has a 6 point lead over Trump nationally, adding for good measure: “It’s early. Trump could win. Also, he could lose in a landslide. We’ll know more in June.” He also said that there wouldn’t be polls for each state for at least “a few months.”
