# Chamber Control — US Elections prediction accuracy Scored under the published methodology (https://missedtakes.co/methodology), which sets out what counts as right, what a naive guess would have said, and why an earlier call is worth more than a late one. ## The numbers - **Takes logged:** 102 - **Graded:** 53 (52% settled) - **Average accuracy:** 79.2 out of 100 - **Scored 80 or more:** 42; **under 40:** 11 - **Pundits who have made one:** 44 ## By season - 2024: 53 of 53 graded - 2026: 0 of 49 graded ## Who is good at chamber control MissedTakes Score for this kind of prediction only — accuracy measured against what a naive guess would have scored; zero means no better than guessing. Ratings this early are samples, not reputations: the confidence tier says how many graded articles sit behind each. - [Sarah McCammon](https://missedtakes.co/pundits/sarah-mccammon): score 102, 100 accuracy, 2 graded across 2 articles (provisional) -
