NTK: Can You Believe the Polls?
Summary
Tom Bonner joins David Rothkopf to analyze the reliability of polling data ahead of the 2024 midterms, arguing that recent fake polls and partisan manipulation have eroded public trust. They discuss the "thermostatic" shift in voter opinion against the Republican Party and the critical need for Democrats to make a positive case to younger, harder-to-reach voters. Bonner emphasizes that likability and modern media engagement are more effective than traditional persuasion strategies, while warning that Republicans may attempt to suppress votes to retain power.
