      1 - Uncertainty due to drift between now and the election
      2 - Uncertainty due to difference between last election poll and final vote share
      3 - Better prior by incorporating more past elections
      4 - Think about how to:
      5   - Inject error
      6   - Inject correlated error

     10 Not as good as gallup.
     11 State uncertainty higher than national.
     12 Should calculate republican error instead. 
     13 
     14 Final error:
     15 National drift + state more uncertain than national + not as good as gallup error + idosyncratic state error
     16 
     17 later: error correlated across states
