Why Trump's race isn't run yet

While most polls have written off Donald Trump's chances of re-election, there are indicators that show he still has a fighting chance.

Piya Sachdeva, an Economist at Schroders, talks to the pod about polling, swing states, early voting and the all-important electoral college vote. While Sean Markowicz, a strategist in the research and analytics team at Schroders, explains why stock markets are at odds with the betting markets and the polls.
