Can someone help me understand what odds like this mean in the context of an election?
The model says that Trump has a 1 in 10 chance of winning. With a fair 10-sided die it makes sense that you have a 1 in 10 chance of any given side rolling face up. But what is the die that is being rolled in these election statistics? What is the "chance" element that is being predicted?
