Putting the results in context

As any other method, polls are subject to bias. Therefore, as a general rule, don't put too much trust in the results of a single poll. Rather than trusting the results from single polls, the evidence-based approach is to consult combined polls or, even better, the combined PollyVote forecast that draws upon forecasts from different methods, each of which draws upon different data.

For the following analysis, we translate the candidates' raw poll numbers into two-party vote shares. The respective figures are 56.0% for Clinton and 0.0% for Trump.
