@BrendanNyhan @gelliottmorris I think it's dishonest for him to conflate our polling average with our forecast when he knows better, but FWIW, it is also not an honest representation of our polling average. We had Clinton up by 6 on this date in 2016, not by 4. https://t.co/sJBHxVdNSS — PolitiTweet.org

@BrendanNyhan @gelliottmorris We've made changes to our polling average algorithm since 2016. Since he looked up what our win probability was in 2016, it would have been more honest of him to also look up and cite what the 2016 version of our polling average was that the win probability was derived from. — PolitiTweet.org
