I live and breathe by this podcast. It’s great. All the A+ pollsters like Marist called the race for Trump and so I got to be depressed much earlier than most. I keep listening because it helps me understand what people are thinking since they don’t make any sense to me on Facebook.
Excellent data, but unsubstantiated opinions need to stop
Just listened to episode on Women's History Month. When the hosts and the editor stated that female students face "so many obstacles" that impede women incollege from such things as going to law school, they forget to mention that more women now attend law school than men. In fact, more women graduate from college overall than men, and that gap is growing. This conflation with fact makes me wonder how reliable their podcast information is.
Not a time waster.
Nice job of digging into polls, including those done by the producers, as well as those done by others. Nice to hear frank talk about polls and polling. Gets a little wonky at times but much better than just some surface gab about the numbers.
