On this week’s episode of our podcast, Poll Hub, David M. Drucker, Senior Political Correspondent for The Washington Examiner, recently wrote an article about an advocacy poll and noted the perceived implications for the 2020 presidential contest. Not so fast! While the Poll Hub team applauds Drucker’s transparent reporting of the survey, some of the conclusions warrant a closer look.

Then, for how many years do Americans want to live? We break down a Survey Monkey poll about longevity conducted for Axios on HBO. What role does quality of life play? The simple answer, a big one.   

About Poll Hub

Poll Hub goes behind the science to explain how polling works, what polls really show, and what the numbers really mean. Poll Hub is produced by The Marist College Institute for Public Opinion, home of America’s leading independent college public opinion poll, The Marist Poll. Lee Miringoff (Director of The Marist College Institute for Public Opinion), Barbara Carvalho (Director of The Marist Poll), and Jay DeDapper (Director of Innovation at The Marist Poll) dig deep to give you a look at the inner workings of polls and what they tell us about our world, our country, and ourselves.
