Elections Podcast Countdown: 5 Days

FiveThirtyEight
 

As the 2016 campaign comes to a close, the FiveThirtyEight Elections podcast team is recording daily episodes. Listen above for the latest installment, in which we discuss whether Hillary Clinton’s lead is still shrinking, one Ohio bellwether county and minimum wage ballot initiatives.

Each day, we’ll touch on some of the same basic topics:

  • The state of the forecast
  • New polls
  • What the campaign managers are emailing about today
  • What we have open in in our browser tabs
  • How the alternate-timeline election is looking
  • A listener question
  • One interesting ballot initiative

We’re also plugging fun videos that have nothing to do with the election:
