Setting Standards

On this week’s episode of our podcast, Poll Hub, Jennifer Agiesta, Director of Polling and Election Analytics for CNN, joins the team! Agiesta outlines CNN’s new requirements that polls need to meet in order to receive coverage at the network. What’s changed? What hasn’t? What kinds of polls just don’t make the cut? The Poll Hub team has the answer. Then, the final word (for now) on the U.S. Census controversy. 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.
