Rothschild model: Clinton tied with Trump in Hawaii

Putting the results in context
In general, however, a good strategy is to not have too much faith in the results of single econometric models, as they often contain large errors. Rather than relying on results from single econometric models, forecasting research recommends to look at combined econometric models or, even better, the combined PollyVote forecast that relies on different methods and data.
