Why does @aircanada.bsky.social care if I spend my voucher on a beer? You’re making me listen to three cranky kids for an extra four hours before my flight but you care about my health?

![Lichtman created the Keys to the White House model with Soviet seismologist Vladimir Keilis-Borok in 1981. The model uses 13 true/false criteria to predict whether the presidential candidate of the incumbent party will win or lose the next election.[1] Using this model, Lichtman has accurately predicted the outcome of most U.S. presidential elections since 1984, with the exceptions of 2000, where he predicted an Al Gore victory (but did caution his model only pertained to the popular vote), and 2016, where he predicted a Donald Trump popular vote victory and afterwards revised his model to note it picked the Electoral College winner.[2][3][4]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:fblul2jt6x6xt6dm224eluwd/bafkreiatrj5qpszxopccgp5upcfordcsnurw426jgd7gcmsvar4wq56zii@jpeg)
