#27: Back to school!

from The Pollsters Hosted by Junto Media

This week Kristen has some family time and we have a special guest co-host of Kellyanne Conway of the polling company/WomanTrend. Kristen will be back next week. 2016: We revisit four questions about Trump-mania. And get ready for Biden-mania? Is it real? Will it last? What’s behind it? How does it affect the Republican brand?

NYT/Upshot/Civis studies Trump Monmouth South Carolina poll Luntz focus group of Trump voters) Pew shows 1/4 unfavorable to both parties 538 on Sanders PPP/New Hampshire poll Gallup on Hispanics' view of GOP field Suffolk/IA poll Quinnipiac national poll Guns Before the tragic shooting of two reporters Pew released some tracking of views on guns.

On education, there is more agreement than disagreement across demographic and party lines--even on our own show!
