Article from a few weeks ago, but now that G. Elliott Morris is taking over without Nate’s models, I’m curious what lemmy’s think about political polling analysis from FiveThirtyEight?

    Honestly, no. Well, not immediately. If the new guy can prove himself then sure, but we are well past the point of just trusting anyone’s political reporting without a strong history of it.

    Wait and see.

      I’d agree with the history of valid reporting before trust is established.

      For me one of the reason this is challenging is there is very little out that seems to be good political reporting, at least on polling predictions.
