The New York times doesn’t have any leading news stories on
the polls or elections. There are stories underneath the election category on
the homepage regarding Trump’s tax fraud. The news today is mostly focused on
the Cubs’ winning.
However, there is now an election forecast bar about 1/3 of
the way down the homepage on the right hand side. It reads: Clinton has an 86
percent chance of winning. This forecast includes ‘where the race has shifted,’
‘state-by-state estimates,’ ‘how other forecasts compare,’ ‘which outcomes are
most likely’ and ‘1,024 paths to the white house.’ The only methodology is a
hyperlink saying that the forecast was created using the latest state and
national polls, the link brings you to the NYT election poll, which could then
be assumed that the methodology is the same.
