The account above showed up on various US election pages a few days ago and started falsely changing the pundit prediction section to include incorrect information. I warned this user a couple times and they stopped, but the IP showed up yesterday and starting editing some of the same election pages, such as United States Senate elections, 2018 and entering in false predictions. All changes have since been reverted, but this is an example change that the user made at the US Senate election page. If you check the source for these predictions, you will see that this is not true (example: changing Indiana predictions to "Lean R" and "Likely R" when it is clearly still listed as "Tossup" on these sites). Here is a false edit made by the IP user. Just like the user account, this IP has done nothing but change predictions of various US elections, and like the changes before, the sources clearly indicate that these predictions have not changed. Neither account has been used for anything other than falsely changing these prediction sections. Tillerh11 (talk) 14:34, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

UPDATE: In case it is at all relevant, the second IP just showed up and started making the same vandalizing/incorrect info edits that the first one was making. It seems that this IP is connected to the account above and the other IP. The edits have been reverted, but here is the edit that they made. Just like the other IP, they seem to especially like changing the "Tossup" predictions to "Lean R" or "Likely R". Tillerh11 (talk) 17:23, 6 May 2018 (UTC)
