Poll Hub episodes

  • The Triple Threat for Trump

    The impeachment process has three prongs – the inquiry, impeachment, and the Senate’s vote to convict and remove the president from office. The NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist Poll has newly released data on President Trump and impeachment and gauges Americans’ attitudes about each facet of the process. We dig deep into that data on this week’s Poll Hub, discuss the nuances, and consider what this all means for President Donald Trump, former Vice President Joe Biden, and the 2020 presidential contest.

    And, the always enlightening and entertaining Senior Writer and Analyst for CNN, Harry Enten, joins the conversation. This is a must listen!

    Plus, check out The Marist Poll Academy for a fun and engaging way to learn about polls.

    In this week’s episode of Poll Hub, Carl P. Leubsdorf, Washington Columnist for The Dallas Morning News, who previously served as the paper’s Washington bureau chief, joins the discussion.

  • It’s a Poll, or Is It?
    Not all polls are created equal. In fact, some so-called “polls” aren’t even polls.
    On this week’s episode of Poll Hub, we call out a recent “poll” that received a good deal of attention from one cable news channel. What were the methodological pitfalls? Our team breaks it down.
    And, speaking of poll education, The Marist Poll has a new educational initiative! The Marist Poll Academy (file:///C:/Users/meg/Marist%20College/MIPO%20-%20Documents/Poll%20Hub%20Central/Poll%20Hub%20Podcast/Show%20Notes/Episodes%20101%20-%20120/academy.maristpoll.marist.edu) seeks to inform political professionals, journalists, and educators about survey research in a visually-engaging way. Daniela Charter, Director of the Survey Center and Education Services at The Marist Poll, provides an overview of this new, online series of courses. Oh, and it’s free, too!

  • Oh, Those Dems!
    In this week’s episode of Poll Hub, we dive deep into brand new NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist Poll results. Topping the rundown: perceptions of the Democratic candidates. In terms of favorability, Elizabeth Warren runs circles around her Democratic challengers among Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents, but attitudes shift when looking at the broader electorate. We explain.
    And, the NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist Poll shows consistent support for gun restrictions in the United States. We share where there is the most consensus as well as the most division and take on the topic of why Congress has yet to act.
    Then, scientifically speaking! We look at Americans’ perceptions of scientists, compliments of a survey conducted by the Pew Research Center (https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2019/08/19/most-americans-have-positive-image-of-research-scientists-but-fewer-see-them-as-good-communicators/).

  • Caucus Chaos?
    In an attempt to ensure cyber security, the Democratic National Committee has disallowed Iowa’s plans to conduct virtual caucuses. What does this mean for Iowa’s first-in-the-nation status? Hear our take.
    Then, Patrick Moynihan, Associate Director of International Research Methods at the Pew Research Center, joins the discussion. Have you ever wondered how polls are conducted in a foreign country? Moynihan sheds light on the considerations and challenges and breaks down what Pew’s Global Attitudes Project (https://www.pewresearch.org/global/2006/09/21/about-the-pew-global-attitudes-project-2/) is all about. If you like this discussion, be sure to check out the Pew Research Center’s Methods 101 on the topic.
