Electoralism
A place for discussing polls, election results, campaign dynamics, and electoral analysis, qualitative and quantitative, as well as meta-discussion around polling and polls.
Bring data, methods, and specific claims. If you want to argue values or do candidate/party cheerleading, there are better communities for that.
What belongs here
- Polls (public preffered, paywalled- if the data can be scraped and reposted), crosstabs, trendlines, aggregators
- Forecasts/models, scenario analysis, win-probability discussions (with assumptions)
- Election results (official tallies, turnout, swings, maps)
- Electoral systems, redistricting, ballot measures, primaries, coalitions
- Campaign strategy as analysis (messages, coalitions, persuasion vs turnout, etc.)
- Historical election comparisons and “what changed?” breakdowns
What doesn’t
- Memes / dunk posts / “team sports” threads
- Calls to action (“vote for/against X”, organizing, fundraising)
- Conspiracy
