From the same #aapor panel this morning, I also really enjoyed this experiment from Jack Miller at BlueLabs - can we curb survey dropoff by telling people a joke but withholding the punchline? (No, alas)

Ann Arbor turned out! No Kings!!

This is completely infuriating. People work extremely hard and changed their entire lives to move to a whole new country, away from their family and friends, to pursue the highest level of education just to have everything they worked for suddenly taken away from them for no good reason at all...

so proud of the @bluelabs.bsky.social polling team for managing to attend #aapor2025 AND keep all projects progressing smoothly! we came, we learned, we’re ready to test all these great ideas! 💙

Happening now in Midway 9!

if you're planning your #aapor25 schedule for tomorrow, @bluelabs.bsky.social has two presentations to check out: - jackmiller.bsky.social & Harriet Leishman are on at 8:30 w/ work on this year's hot topic - weighting on recalled vote - i'll be talking at 11 about surveying low propensity voters

Postcards have advantages but for my past I think its time to try different stuff. Considering their downsides (time, postage, the sheer wrist pain of it all) I urge others to think similarly. Lets try new stuff. /thread

we're hiring!! the polling team at @bluelabs.bsky.social has 2 open positions: polling analyst: job-boards.greenhouse.io/bluelabsanal... polling manager: job-boards.greenhouse.io/bluelabsanal... if you love surveys and solving tough problems then we should chat! please apply/share widely!

This is what happens when you ask me to help sanewash the Trump tariffs.

My four part messaging strategy for any Democrat for the next four years: ABCD -Abortion is healthcare -Build the damn roads (ie deliver on basic functions of government ) -Cost are too damn high (housing, health care, higher ed, help with kids and aging parents) -Don’t forget about the corruption

I embedded an experiment in latest survey to test effect of attributing the "poisoning the blood" language to Trump... GOP voters inclined to agree with language to begin with, and attributing it to Trump just increases their acceptance, especially among MAGA More: www.cbsnews.com/news/cbs-new...

Another study that, in its implications, casts doubt on the common practice of disqualifying respondents who fail attention checks in online surveys.

I need to buy a print of this and hang it on my wall.
