FiveThirtyEight Explains Super Tuesday

from Chicken or Egg: A Collaboration from On the Media + FiveThirtyEight (On the Media)

Primary voters in twelve states (and American Samoa) head to the polls on Super Tuesday -- and media expectations are high. Our collaborators at the data news site FiveThirtyEight have a politics podcast, and this week their look at Super Tuesday explains how to read the Super Tuesday results, including media declarations of "inevitability" and "momentum." Plus: why Donald Trump's candidacy has thrown forecasting models into disarray. We play two long excerpts from the podcast, which you can listen to in its entirety here. You can subscribe to FiveThirtyEight's podcasts here.
