Statistics, polling, and getting your geek on...

[SpongeBob*24]

I hate statistics....

I just Googled Childhood Obesity and Starvation rates. Guess what?

1 in 5 are starving and 1 in 5 are obese...yep, I hate statistics!

....and 2 in 5 dont have internet to answer the poll.

FiveThirtyEight gave Trump a 30% chance of winning on election night - the highest percentage of any major statistical outfit. They're legit.

But he won 100% of the required electoral votes. Legit?

If a fecal protection system, which boasted of a 30% success rate of stopping thrown matter, was recently installed in front of the monkey cage at the zoo, would you still visit said monkey exhibit?

A 30% chance of successfully choosing the winner between TWO candidates “is legit”? Seems a coin would have better odds.
