Ep 379: Polling ICE-land and Greenland


Listen Later

How do Americans feel ICE is handling the situation in Minneapolis? Should the United States try to take over Greenland? This week on The Horse Race, Steve and Jenn look at the polling on controversies at home and abroad. Then, they discuss a surprising story from CommonWealth Beacon on the legal designation of a "Gateway City" and why some cities who are receiving targeted funds might not meet the standard. Finally, our colleague and friend Chris Lisinski joins the pod for some puppy content.


Hosts:

⁠Steve Koczela⁠, President of the MassINC Polling Group

Jennifer Smith, reporter for CommonWealth Beacon
