Putting the results in context

Votamatic released the results of a new poll, in which respondents from New Hampshire were asked for whom they will vote: Republican Donald Trump or Democrat Hillary Clinton.

Historically, New Hampshire has been a battleground state, in which neither of the two major parties has had overwhelming support to secure its electoral college votes. Therefore, predictions here are of particular value.

The poll was carried out with 0 participants.

Putting the results in context

In general, however, a good strategy is to not have too much faith in the results of single polls, because they can incorporate large errors. Instead of relying on results from single polls, one should consult combined polls or, even better, a combined forecast that draws upon different methods and data.

For the following analysis, we translate Clinton's and Trump's raw poll numbers into shares of the two-party vote. This procedure results in figures of 44.5% for Clinton and 0.0% for Trump.

Results compared to other polls

When compared to the average results of other polls Clinton performed worse with 0.0 percentage points, while Trump did better with 0.0 percentage points. The most recent PollyVote predicts Clinton to gain 46.4% and Trump % of the two-party vote in New Hampshire.
