Chaz Nuttycombe, 26, has taken the election prediction world by storm, becoming one of the most talked about and sought after forecasters in the country. He’s quick to share the credit. “When it comes to my job as a forecaster, and now a pollster, I work with a brilliant polling committee,” Nuttycombe told Catie Beck during an appearance on the most recent episode of ‘Untold – A WTVR Podcast.’ And for good reason. Nuttycombe and his teammates at the nonprofit operation State Navigate were stunningly accurate when it came to calling the outcomes of the various 2025 Virginia contests. “We did pretty well this year, especially in our polling,” said Nuttycombe. “There was only one other pollster by margin of victory, YouGov, that did better than us for the governor race. They had Spanberger by 15, we had 13 in both of our surveys….Of every pollster that asked about the races here in Virginia for governor and lieutenant governor and attorney general, we did the best.” After high school, the western Hanover native took his growing passion to Virginia Tech, where he honed his craft and created an election prediction company called CNalysis, a sort of predecessor to State Navigate.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
