Poll Analysis
Methodology-level readings of the polling data: each pollster's lean versus the rolling average, how much each party's headline figure has moved recently, and where the current numbers land against the seat-projection model.
House effects (last 90 days)
Average signed deviation of each pollster's recent polls from the rolling average. Positive means the pollster has shown the party higher than the aggregate; negative means lower. Methodology-level — not a judgement of any firm.
