The Science and Art of Political Polling

https://www.flickr.com/photos/skewgee/

‘Tis the season for polls, polling and pollsters.  We’ll hear from leading pollsters about how they put polls together, why similar polls can come up with very different results, and what you, the consumer of polls, can do to be a wise (and weary) user of polls.

 

Guests:

Daniel M. Shea, director of the Goldfarb Center for Public Affairs and Civic Engagement at Colby College.

 

Andrew Smith, University of New Hampshire, Associate Professor of Practice in Political Science, Director of the UNH Survey Center

 

 Robert Domine, President & CEO of DRI/Critical Insights/dpa
