Rhode Island: Crosstab model shows Clinton in the lead

Putting the results in context

As a general rule, however, don't have too much faith in the results of single models, as they sometimes incorporate large errors. Instead of trusting the results from single models, we recommend to use combined models or, even better, the combined PollyVote forecast that includes different methods and data.

Comparison to the combined PollyVote

The most recent PollyVote forecasts Clinton to gain 62.1% of the two-party vote in Rhode Island. PollyVote currently predicts Clinton to gain 3.6 percentage points more compared to the results of the Crosstab model.
