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 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!
