Hawkfish, a data and analytics firm funded by former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, has warned that Trump could win a phantom victory on election night because of the time it takes to tabulate votes sent by mail.

Instead of a projection of what will happen in the various conference tournaments, what we see reflected instead is this: Whatever team is in first place at the time, that team is designated the automatic qualifier from that league. Everyone else goes into the at-large pool. So some of the essential questions that might need to be addressed in composing the actual bracket usually aren’t addressed until much later....

There are some eternal verities about politics—chiefly, that most politicians are (surprise, surprise) carefully calculating and keenly attuned to what is possible. There are some eternal truths about history, too. History has a habit of changing its mind.
