What is The Matthews Review?

Founded by Asher Matthews, The Matthews Review is an expanded form of a personal blog, sharing opinions, reports, and analysis. The Review began as a place to share electoral projections formulated by Asher Matthews. The Matthews Review covers topics ranging from political opinion to news analysis to sports commentary. It also contains a page dedicated to photography sharing.

The Matthews Review is the successor to the Matthews Forecast, a website rendered four years before The Matthews Review as a way to share Asher Matthews’ personal projections for the 2020 United States elections.

Who is Asher Matthews?

Hey, it’s me, Asher Matthews. Who am I? I’m a 15-year-old high-schooler who will be a sophomore in the upcoming school year. Since I was 7 I have been passionate about politics and for years have yearned for a future career as a political figure or as an attorney.

I am also both an athlete and a sports fan. I follow the Patriots, Red Sox, and Celtics intently as well as playing tennis for my high school. There’s little I enjoy more than discussing baseball or football, especially obscure former players.

Why should you listen to me? That’s for sure what I’d be asking. I believe that as a young person who has been interested in politics far longer than some political professionals have been, I provide a unique perspective. I am a Jew, a resident of Pennsylvania (which also provides a unique, out-of-market perspective as a sports fan), and a generally passionate person.

If you’re looking for the most informed news or even opinion, this is likely not the source for you, but I believe The Matthews Review is a great place to look for an entry-level understanding of issues from a unique perspective.
