Karen Floyd will be monitoring the Pollster Panel at 10:45a on Friday, June 15th at the Faith & Freedom Coalition Conference in Washington, DC. The panel will be composed of Luke Frans, who serves as the Executive Director of Resurgent Republic guiding their research project and advising on conservative messaging; Scott Rasmussen, the founder of Rasmussen Reports and in September will head the television show, What America Thinks; and, Glen Bolger, the co-founder of Public Opinion Strategies which counts 19 Senators and 70 Members of Congress as clients.
Just a snap shot in time….
According to Resurgent Republic, “American voters' top priority remains the economy, and they overwhelmingly believe the country is stuck in a recession, President Obama's economic plan is not working, and that it's time to try something else.”
Meanwhile, the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows Mitt Romney attracting 47% of the vote, while President Obama earns 44%. Five percent (5%) prefer some other candidate, and four percent (4%) are undecided.
In a blog post by Glen Bolger, the co-founder of Public Opinion Strategies in March of 2012, despite the press meme (not all, just many) that Barack Obama is cruising toward re-election and the presidential die is cast, a look back at recent presidential elections suggests wild swings in the ballot await.
Polling is a fickle thing. Despite, the hard rap given to pollsters by dying campaigns; there is infinite value in the numbers. From knowing how voters react to message, to understanding nuances in niche markets, polls provide critical insight to successful campaigns.
If you are in the greater Washington area we invite you to join us, and for those working and managing their families across the country we look forward to reporting back on the discussions and points raised during the panel.
Stay tuned.
