Putting the results in context
As a general rule, however, don't have too much faith in the results of single models, as they can contain large errors. Instead of relying on results from single models, the evidence-based approach is to rely on combined models or, even better, the combined PollyVote forecast that incorporates forecasts from different methods, each of which draws upon different data.
