Rothschild model: In Minnesota trails by a very clear margin

The Rothschild model provided an updated forecast of the election result. It currently predicts a two-party vote share of 76.0% for Clinton and 24.0% for Trump in Minnesota.

Putting the results in context

As any other method, econometric models are subject to bias. In general, a good strategy is to not have too much faith in the results of a single econometric model. Rather than relying on results from single econometric models, research in forecasting recommends to use combined econometric models or, even better, a combined forecast that uses different methods and data.
