The New Hampshire aftermath: This week’s PB/Polling Matters TV Show looks at where the race stands now

Where does the battle for Obama’s successor stand now?

Although the outcome in both the Republican and Democratic races in the New Hampshire primary was completely in line with the polls the results have come as a massive shock. One thing’s for sure – previous assumptions about how US elections work don’t apply any more and we look forward with a great degree of uncertainty.

This was also the biggest political betting event since the UK General Election last May.

The second PB/Polling Matters TV Show is divided into two parts. In the first Keiran Pedley looks at what happened with two US pollsters and in the second discusses with me the betting implications.

The TV show is very much new venture and we’ve been heartened by the positive reaction to the first one last week. There’ve been encouraging comments in the Daily Telegraph as well as this Tweet from veteran ITN broadcaster Alistair Stewart.
