If you can’t accept that the relationship between economic outcomes and attitudes is fundamentally different now, you’re either being politically correct or you’re not paying attention.

My wish for the next election is that poll trackers look like the one on the right 👉 not the left

This was yet another election where the polling showed it could easily go either way, but most of the charts just showed two nice clean lines, one leading and one trailing. Bad!

This is absolutely hilarious

Wonder what @JohnKingCNN thinks about @TheOnion giving him a run for his money on the magic wall 🤷‍♂️🤣

Great investigation into how various types of weighting affect top line polling numbers

New from 404 Media: we've found exactly how a Musk-funded PAC is microtargeting Muslims & Jews with opposing messages. Happening with adverts on Snapchat; digging through data we found the exact ZIP codes the PAC is targeting. Includes areas with mosques https://t.co/Fh3IFKcpb7

I'm delighted that the entry on group appeals by @s_stue and me is part of this fantastic project!

Three days since this report by Axios, the Harris campaign is continuing to run these misleading political ads, which have been edited to appear as though they are real headlines and articles by major news outlets.

It’s really striking how the Corbynite left has migrated to the Greens.

The result is a curious coalition between the older and more Nimby environmentalist base, and the new hard left/progressive influx.

These are quite different people with quite different politics!

[Dan Hopkins @dhopkins1776]

MeToo. Israel-Palestine. Even cat ladies. Stories cueing social identities frequently fill headlines.

In a new @AJPSeditor with @ylelkes & S. Wolken “The rise of and demand for identity-oriented media coverage” we offer a partial explanation why.

#Trump sagt in dem Clip, der gerade viral geht, nicht, dass es nach seiner Wahl keine Wahlen mehr geben wird. Er sagt: Wenn er jetzt gewählt wird, werde er das Wahlsystem so „reparieren“, dass es danach keine betrugssicheren Riesenmehrheiten für die Republikaner mehr brauche. 1/2

A lot has happened recently, so we almost forgot America is experiencing a complete reversal in immigration public opinion.

I'm not going to mince words: this is bad. The attitudes are as negative now as they were post-9/11. This is bad not just for Democrats but for everyone 🧵

Im Herbst entscheidet das Stimmvolk über die Reform der beruflichen Vorsorge. Eine Studie zeigt nun: Die Mehrheit weiss wenig über das Vorsorgesystem.https://t.co/ghemB4qW8q

Fortschritt oder doch nicht. Das @EJPD_DFJP_DFGP und der @CoeGreco sind sich nicht einig. Fest steht – das hab ich bei @GeldundPolitik nachgeschaut – bei über 50 Spenden und über 4 Mio. wissen wir nicht, woher das Geld kommt. ⇨ Den Blog bei @Lobbywatch_CH
