(116 posts)Not sure why anyone on DU would want to work there.

(99,708 posts)However if there was a polling/consulting company that had Democrats and Republicans equally represented I might consider it. But they would have to be reasonable Republicans and not deplorables...

(99,708 posts)The principals are certainly credible:
Kristen Soltis Anderson is a pollster and author of The Selfie Vote: Where Millennials Are Leading America (And How Republicans Can Keep Up). She is co-founder of Echelon Insights and is a columnist for The Washington Examiner. During the fall of 2014, she was a Resident Fellow at Harvard Universitys Institute of Politics. Previously, she served as Vice President of The Winston Group, a Republican polling firm in DC. In 2013, she was named one of TIME Magazines 30 under 30 Changing the World, Marie Claires New Guard of fifty rising female leaders, one of Campaigns & Elections The Influencers 50 as one of the campaign disruptors to watch, and as one of National Journal Magazines 25 Most Influential Women Under 35 in Washington.
Patrick Ruffini is a strategist, thinker, and organizer focused on data and technologys disruptive impact on politics and business. He was among the first digital strategists in American politics, working for President Bushs 2004 campaign, directing the Republican National Committees digital strategy in 2006, and founding Engage, a leading digital agency in politics and issue advocacy. Ruffini has led technology efforts in three successive Presidential cycles and advised clients around the world.

Perhaps you should put the buzz in Nate Silver's ear....

Should I put the "Buzz" in Nate Tin's ear that Ms. Soltis Anderson was a Resident Fellow at Harvard Universitys Institute of Politics. Previously, she served as Vice President of The Winston Group, a Republican polling firm in DC. In 2013, she was named one of TIME Magazines 30 under 30 Changing the World, Marie Claires New Guard of fifty rising female leaders, one of Campaigns & Elections The Influencers 50 as one of the campaign disruptors to watch, and as one of National Journal Magazines 25 Most Influential Women Under 35 in Washington.
I think we can stipulate she is an expert in the field of political surveys.

(36,374 posts)and this one flew under their radar. Someone needs to put the buzz in the slacker's head, and tell him about this one.

(4,602 posts)Measuring poll to poll differences not always best given size of potential sampling error.
Look at the mean lead over polls before and after debate. Within individual polls...a crapshoot.

(4,602 posts)Comparing brand x poll before and brand x poll after assumes too much about house effects we don't know

I say this because lots of interviewees/undecideds are saying she's not giving them the reason to vote for her.

(4,742 posts)And a correction...50% of the poll was taken on Monday which would have been pre-debate. Most pollsters won't call past 9pm.

(58,598 posts)I won't trust many polls claiming some kind of debate influence before Friday, maybe late Thursday. More likely, it won't show up til the weekend.
