Psephological

[goodwinnihon]

was reading an article in the BBC news magazine and stumbled upon a word which meaning i had to search for

"Psephological" - related to elections, or a study of it

... and kind of thought it was goodword-worthy

It certainly is, it was covered previously here:

I love to read the insights of Nate Silver, perhaps the most prominent psephologist of our times, when I get the time:

I'm British and have no horse state-side but the way he constructs his statistical models is always fascinating - though he does cover our side of the pond on occasion.
