Putting the results in context
In general, however, you should not have too much faith in the results of single models, because they can contain large errors. Rather, one should examine how a model's results compare to benchmark forecasts.
Comparison to the combined PollyVote
The most recent PollyVote predicts Trump to gain 60.7% of the two-party vote in Utah. PollyVote currently predicts Trump to gain 1.8 percentage points less compared to the results of the DeSart & Holbrook model.
