Jerome model in Vermont: Clinton with comfortable lead
The Jerome model is included in the econometric models component of the combined PollyVote forecast. It currently predicts a two-party vote share of 54.2% for Clinton and 45.8% for Trump in Vermont.
Putting the results in context
As a general rule, however, one should not have too much faith in the results of single econometric models, since they often incorporate large errors. Instead of relying on results from single econometric models, we recommend to rely on combined econometric models or, even better, the combined PollyVote forecast that incorporates different methods and data.
