Article explore the classification of forecasting methods according to different criteria. We analyze the differences of computer and theoretical (expert) methods.In addition, we explore the advantages of using computer methods in political forecasting.The purpose of the article is to study the peculiarities of the computer methods application in political forecasting. The principal results: classification of computer methods were created, as well as a detailed study of their features in the process of political forecasting. The major conclusions: forecasting and making its results mathematically clear. These methods provide the opportunity to reuse one model for different situations in political forecasting, unlike theoretical methods.
