So, now we know who Poblano is!
That a writer for Baseball Prospectus would also be a writer who would undertake the systematic quantitative analysis of an ongoing election campaign that we have come to rely on at fivethirtyeight.com makes sense. But, still, I would not have guessed.
I have noted, in print, the similarity of sabermetrics to electoral analysis (APSR, 1993), giving Bill James what is likely his only citation in the political science literature to date. Now we have another data point, so to speak.
Thanks to S. Taylor for making me aware of Poblano’s revelation!
