3. Morning Consult - an el Cheapo automated online tracking poll

Sep 2019

The same form sent out to the same 5,000 person panel every week. The design may be the best in the business, but it is low, low rent.

In the GE, Morning Consult does online interviews - in the primaries they are literally phoning it in.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

Morning Consult is a B- rated pollster. The rating of an organization says little about the merits and biases of an individual poll and this one is dirt, dirt cheap.

primary today, I would vote for:

VPOLITICO's polling partner, Morning Consult, surveys more than 5,000 registered voters across the United States every day. This poll represents one week's worth of responses from voters who intend to vote in the Democratic primary.

I was meeting a former colleague at a bar last weekend up in the very very red sticks as I came through the little town where I used to work. Think of the country bar where the blues brothers played rawhide behind the chicken wire. I had on a shirt that said "Persist" in rainbow colors and "Elizabeth Warren 2020" at the bottom...

I said to her "Ooops they might not like my outfit in here..." She said, "Oh don't worry about that, none of these rednecks know who she is... as long as it doesn't say Hillary!"
