Old Politicians and Bad Questions

from Poll Hub · host Lee Miringoff, Barbara Carvalho, Jay DeDapper, Mary Griffith

Age. A tricky topic, especially in politics. A lot is being made of Joe Biden's age, but also that of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Senator Diane Feinstein, and Donald Trump. Polls show Americans want younger leaders but...they keep electing old ones. Maybe it's not just about age...Then, a new paper by some polling industry researchers has us asking their question: Are we asking the wrong questions in our polls? When nearly everything is viewed through a partisan (or tribal!) lens, how can we get respondents to tell us the truth? Maybe they actually already are.And, we finish with a question that seems very dated. It's about a million dollar lottery. A million bucks? Isn't that what a scratch off is nowadays?

What this episode covers

There is no age limit for politicians, but should there be? How old is too old? Also, are we asking the wrong questions? The team dives into new questions about...poll questions. Finally, the million dollar question, what would you do if you won the lottery?
