After four years apart, my election boyfriend and I are hot and heavy again. I’d missed Nate’s manly statistics, his rippling calculations, his swoon-worthy algorithms. In four years, we’ve both changed a lot. His site is now part of The New York Times! Oh Nate, I’m not the only one who loves you.

Right now, he’s predicting an 85.7% probability that Obama will win. Nate, I hope you’re right about this.


The Great Nate

p.s. Some friends have expressed curiosity/concern about Nate and I. To clarify: In reality, we are neither physically nor carnally acquainted, sadly. Such is life.

p.p.s. Nate, if you are wrong and the election goes the other way, I’m breaking up with you.
