Customer Reviews
Hear what voters say among their friends
Sarah usually groups voters who voted the same way in the past and maybe have demographic similarities (students, older voters) and gets real talk from people comfortable in an affinity group, then analyzes with a guest with insight into that group. A gold mine!
I’m a focus groupie!
I’m a huge fan of Sarah. Even though I’m a civil libertarian and an economic market socialist and vote Democratic, I love her insight and her ability to articulate what these groups have to say!
