With elections drawing closer and closer, we're all on the edge of our seats to see who rises above all odds and secures presidency. In this app you can view the dominating party with respect to each of states that make up the US of A. All predictions are based on real time predictions made by deep data analytics to ensure concurrent accuracy as new data pools in. We tap into reliable sources and big names in journalism such The New Yorker and Huffpost as well as twitter trends to crunch numbers and study analytics.
How It Works:
The best way to predict the future is to study past behavior. This is the underlying idea behind Big Data Analytics. The Obama election campaign of 2008 was one of the first to take advantage of data-driven methods in the race to an elected office. The Obama campaign had a data analytics team of 100 people. This shows how deeply data analytics impacts the world. From recommending products to customers on e-commerce websites (i.e. using predictive analytics) to electing the most powerful official of the free world. Big Data Analytics is indeed everywhere. Data analytics has evolved itself to become the brain of every election campaign since the Obama campaign. Data analytics helps the election campaign to understand the voters better and hence adapt to their sentiments.
There are two subdivisions of extracting data for an election campaign. Firstly, social data and polling data and secondly public data which becomes a part of Big Data.
As we all have access to previous elections data, we can make use of it to find patterns and thus make strong predictions.
Our team is consistently analyzing latest trends in social media such as facebook and twitter. Our automated system performs sentiment analysis on many of authentic news sources and assigns calculated score to each of election party.
