Putting the results in context

Single models may contain large errors, and should be treated with caution. Rather, one should examine how a model's results compare to benchmark forecasts.

Comparison to other econometric models

Trump currently runs at 50.4% of the two-party vote in an average of recent econometric models. Relative to numbers in the Fair model Trump's econometric model average is 5.6 percentage points worse.
