Putting the results in context

Individual econometric models should be treated with caution, because they may contain large errors. Instead of relying on results from single econometric models, we recommend to use combined econometric models or, even better, the combined PollyVote forecast that incorporates forecasts from different methods, each of which draws upon different data.
