Polycentric Republic

where order comes from when no one’s in charge.

When artificial intelligence, data, and money reshape how decisions get made, one question keeps surfacing: who actually decides? This is a newsletter about the machinery of democratic decision-making — elections, institutions, and the systems now quietly steering both — written analytically, from evidence, by someone who has worked inside the process and builds the technology reshaping it.

What you’ll get: roughly biweekly pieces, each built on original research rather than opinion — including primary election-forecasting work you won’t find anywhere else. Analysis, not advocacy; evidence, not noise.
