We are analyzing a dataset from the American National Election Studies to determine if sex was a factor in voting for the 1992 presidential election. One problem is that the sample is not random enough to accurately represent the population. We made a multinomial logistic regression model to develop approximate intercepts for the votes each candidate get. In our model, women are more likely to support Clinton. Women are around 53% likely to support Clinton, but it could be around 48% or 58%

\[\begin{aligned} \rho_{clinton} &=& \frac{e^{\beta_{0, clinton} + \beta_{1, clinton} male}}{1 + e^{\beta_{0, clinton} + \beta_{1, clinton} male}}\\ \rho_{perot} &=& \frac{e^{\beta_{0, perot} + \beta_{1, perot} male}}{1 + e^{\beta_{0, perot} + \beta_{1, perot} male}}\\ \rho_{bush} &=& 1 - \rho_{clinton} - \rho_{perot} \end{aligned}\]
Warning in tidy.brmsfit(x, ..., effects = "fixed"): some parameter names
contain underscores: term naming may be unreliable!
✖ Unable to identify the list of variables.

This is usually due to an error calling `stats::model.frame(x)`or `stats::model.matrix(x)`.
It could be the case if that type of model does not implement these methods.
Rarely, this error may occur if the model object was created within
a functional programming framework (e.g. using `lappy()`, `purrr::map()`, etc.).
