South Dakota: Jerome model shows Trump in the lead

The Jerome model released an updated forecast of the election result. According to the model, Clinton will achieve 43.0% of the two-party vote share in South Dakota, while Trump will end up with 57.0%.

Putting the results in context

Individual econometric models should be regarded with caution, since they may include large errors. At least, one should examine how a econometric model's results compare to benchmark forecasts.

Comparison to other econometric models

Trump can currently count on 59.6% of the major two-party vote according to an average of recent econometric models in South Dakota. This value is 2.6 percentage points higher than his respective numbers in the Jerome model.
