Putting the results in context
As any other method, econometric models are subject to bias. Thus, as a general rule, one should not focus too much on the results of an individual econometric model. At the very least, one should check how a econometric model's results compare to benchmark forecasts.
Comparison to other econometric models
Trump currently achieves 71.1% of the two-party vote according to an average of recent econometric models in Wyoming. This value is 3.4 percentage points higher than his corresponding numbers in the Jerome model.
