Description | — Trump campaigned more times in more states than Hillary Clinton in 2016.
— However, a regression analysis of the 2016 results does not show rallies having a significant impact on that election’s results.
— Campaigns may derive indirect benefits from rallies, though, such as voter contacts, press coverage, and donations. But there’s not much evidence to show that the number of rallies in a given state had an impact on the results. |
