Voters Lose Their Appetite For Incumbents

In this Thanksgiving week installment of the 538 Politics podcast, the crew sits down for a three-course discussion. First, a new poll suggests that economic sentiment data might be even more warped by partisanship than we thought. After that, it’s another round of "Buy, Sell, Hold." Will the Senate confirm Tulsi Gabbard as director of national intelligence? Will President-elect Donald Trump pardon himself? Finally, the crew considers whether 2024 will go down as the death knell of the incumbent advantage. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

How The Polls Did In 2024

Election Day was a moment of truth for pollsters. After high-profile misses in 2016 and 2020, and with a public that has become less trusting of polling, 2024 had the potential to be a make-or-break year for the polls. Two weeks later, pollsters are, on the whole, breathing sighs of relief. Polls were less error-prone this year than in 2016 and 2020. By one measure, state-level polling was the most accurate it’s been in at least 25 years. But that’s not the whole story. In this installment of the 538 Politics podcast, we evaluate how the polls did, covering the good, the bad and the statistically insignificant. Hold on to your priors.

Lost its magic :(

This show has been the favorite part of my week for the past 5 years, but I feel like it’s now time to move on now. I like Galen, Nate and Perry, they are great. But it just doesn’t have that magic of the original hosts’ chemistry. Like everyone else, missing Clare (and Micah. And Harry)
DSA guest is kind of delusional

Just listened to the episode where you had the two political scientists talking about New York mayoral race. This episode would have been better if the DSA lady actually grasped reality instead of lobbying in a delusional way about the current state of the DSA and its future. I understand being excited about your beliefs but how about painting a more realistic picture!
