Evolution

The Roper Center for Public Opinion Research recently announced a change in its acquisition policy to include online non-probability based samples. The change aims to increase transparency. On this week’s episode of Poll Hub, we speak with Gary Langer, President of Langer Research Associates, who serves as the Roper Board’s Transparency and Acquisitions Chair, about the new policy. But first, the impeachment buzz neared a fever pitch this week. We assess where Americans stand on the issue.   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.
