As the weekend progresses, things are looking up for our hero. Why, just a little while ago, Nate Silver tweeted the following:
Simple average of national polls released Thursday: Obama +0.9. Friday: Obama +1.2. Saturday: Obama +1.3. Today (so far): Obama +1.4
— Nate Silver (@fivethirtyeight) November 4, 2012
It seems that as election day approaches, more and more people are drifting over to the Obama column. Did these previously-undecided voters rub their eyes this morning, stretch their arms after an hour-longer sleep, and suddenly decide to start paying attention? Was it fact-checking? Attack ads?
