Jerome model in Connecticut: Clinton is in the lead

The Jerome model enters the econometric models component of the PollyVote. The model's forecast is that Clinton will receive 53.5% of the two-party vote share in Connecticut, while Trump will win 46.5%. In comparison, on August 14, Clinton was predicted to win only 46.5% of the vote.

Putting the results in context

Individual econometric models often include substantial errors, which is why they should be interpreted with caution. Rather than trusting the results from single econometric models, the best practice is to consult combined econometric models or, even better, a combined forecast that uses different methods and data.

Clinton currently runs at 55.1% of the major two-party vote in an average of recent econometric models in Connecticut. Compared to her numbers in the Jerome model Clinton's econometric model average is 1.6 percentage points better.
