From the Washington Post’s * website today:
“Well, a University of Texas study done last year calculates that a candidate could win by as little as 1 percentage point and still lose the electoral college in some cases.”

* Their preference is “The” not “the” Washington Post, but that sounds to me too uppity for a nice middle-class liberal paper like [the] Post.
