Tim Ryan --> loss

Tim Kaine --> loss

Tim Walz --> loss

Clear message from voters. No more Tims.

NEW WP: Regret motivates vax. behavior change.

Exposure to "reversal narrative" messages emphasizing why hospitalized RSV patients regret not vaccinating is associated with increased vax. uptake intentions.

Dems up & down ballot saw a *massive* spike in donations following Biden's decision to drop out.

The 2024 "vibe shift" (see our WP) may have important impact on campaign dynamics.

NEW (Pre-Reg!) WP. Few Americans are concerned about H5N1, or recognize dangers of raw milk (43%!), which in turn motivates opp. to policies to mitigate avian flu.

NEW WP. It's a Kamala-nomenon!

We quantify the "vibe shift" in US politics following Pres. Biden's decision to drop out of the '24 race, in a pre-registered nat. experiment embedded in a nationally representative panel study. 🧵

Draft: https://t.co/0uk1g6WoxB

[Matt Motta (@mattmotta.bsky.social) @matt_motta]

We happened to be fielding a nationally rep. panel study at the time Pres. Biden dropped out of the race.

We pre-registered a study design (still fielding) and will report back soon! https://t.co/ZAe0IwM81O

@askellyphd Congratulations! That is wonderful news and very well deserved!!!

[Timothy Callaghan @THCallaghan]

I'm excited to announce that my paper with @sarahgollust, @matt_motta, and @Julie6446 has been published!

In the paper, we argue for the need to better integrate Party ID into public health survey research to confront the politicization of public health
