Political Analytics is a one-day conference at Harvard University featuring top minds from media, politics, and academics. We are starting an exciting conversation about the growing role of data and analytics in determining the winners and losers in politics. This unique event will highlight and showcase how emerging forms of analytics are changing the way we understand politics in the 21st century.

Political Analytics was originally created in 2016 by Ryan Enos and Kirk Goldsberry. In light of the dynamic shifts in today’s political landscape, we are excited to relaunch this highly successful conference after a seven-year hiatus. The 2025 revival is organized by Ryan Enos, Liberty Vittert Capito, and Scott Tranter.

The conference is sponsored by the Center for American Political Studies at Harvard University (Stephen Ansolabehere, Director), and co-sponsored by the Harvard Institute for Quantitative Social Science and the Harvard Data Science Review. We gratefully acknowledge Microsoft’s support of the inaugural 2016 conference.
