It is beginning to be number crunching season amongst pollsters and pundits as the mid-term elections approach.
The only analyst I trust at the moment is Sam Wang of Princeton Election Consortium.
And yet I remind us all that elections cannot be reduced to numbers. Sadly, to a large extent they can be reduced to money. And according to the information I am getting, big-money Republican interests are out-funding Democrats by a significant margin.
So, let us be a bit cautious about even the Election Consortium. If it's just the numbers we want, let's turn to Princeton. If it's the march of events and how to understand how they may affect the elections, let's definitely include others.
