DeSart model in West Virginia: Trump is in the lead

The DeSart model provided an updated forecast of the election outcome. According to the model, Clinton will obtain 33.3% of the two-party vote share in West Virginia, while Trump will end up with 66.7%.

Putting the results in context

Individual models should be interpreted with caution, since they can include substantial biases. Rather than relying on results from single models, you should look at combined models or, even better, a combined forecast that draws upon different methods and data.
