As mentioned earlier, we're hoping that many bloggers will use the Election Predictor to showcase their thoughts about the upcoming campaign.
One way of doing this would be to link to the predictor after configuring it to showcase their predictions. Another way would be to add a mini-predictor to their blog.
For example, Simon Jackman recently described a sudden increase in Labor's lead in a particular Newspoll as "statistically significant". At the time, Labor's lead appeared to jump from 55/45 to 59/41. The latter figure would look like this in a mini-predictor:
The next day, John Quiggin talked about how the poll results were jumping all over the place. He estimated that on the whole, Labor's two-party preferred rating was probably sitting at around 56 to 57%, which would look like this:
Like they say, a picture tells a thousand words. Hopefully Election Predictor will help more bloggers to share pictures along with their priceless words.
