Crosstab model in Washington, D.C.: Clinton is in the lead

The Crosstab model provided an updated prediction of the election result. According to the model, Clinton will garner 93.0% of the two-party vote share in Washington, D.C., whereas Trump will end up with 7.0%. In comparison, on October 25, Clinton was predicted to collect only 92.7% of the vote.

Putting the results in context

Single models often include substantial errors, which is why they should be treated with caution. Instead of trusting the results from single models, we recommend to use combined models or, even better, a combined forecast that relies on forecasts from different methods, each of which relies on different data.
