Nan 1948, Ameriken gen E.B. Ekri opined ke "sa yo rele syans vòt yo pran an se pa yon syans tout men yon sèlman necromancy." Pandan tout tan politik syantis yo te ka pa dakò, yo kapab byen ta vle fè objeksyon yo jan sa dwe fèt byen sou koulye a. Konnen sa konn pwodiksyon de la 2015 Eleksyon jeneral la ont sou sib. Men, ki move yo, sa te ka yo vle di pou jan nou panse osijè de "done jounalis"?

In 1948, the American writer E.B. Write opined that “the so-called science of poll-taking is not a science at all but a mere necromancy.” While political scientists might disagree, they probably would keep their objections quite right about now. It is well known that expert predictions of the 2015 General Election were off target. But how bad were they and what might they mean for how we think about “data journalism”?
