I don't think this article provides strong evidence that they are well calibrated on the presidential election specifically (sample size N=3), or that they are correctly accounting for rare black swan events, but it does seem to imply that the criticisms about "538 claims victory no matter what because they always have non-zero probabilities" are oversimplified.
