Massachusetts: DeSart & Holbrook model shows Clinton in the lead

The DeSart & Holbrook model released an updated prediction of the election result. The model currently forecasts a two-party vote share of 65.9% for Clinton, and 34.1% for Trump in Massachusetts.

Putting the results in context

In general, however, you should not have too much faith in the results of single models, because they may incorporate large errors. Instead of relying on results from single models, you should look at combined models or, even better, the combined PollyVote forecast that relies on forecasts from different methods, each of which draws upon different data.

Results compared to the combined PollyVote forecast

The current PollyVote anticipates Clinton to gain 64.7% of the two-party vote in Massachusetts. The results of the DeSart & Holbrook model for Clinton are thus 1.2 percentage points above the combined PollyVote in Massachusetts.
