#4070 Zoom Only:  “Pundits, Polls & Politics! The ’24 Election!” 

Instructor: Doug Stowell 

The 2024 Election is here! Let’s:

1) Review POTUS “Approval” history
1945-2020),

2) Explore how better voter polls are done,

3) Discuss “Pundits”,

4) Define
“Generations” and

5) We will review current polls and focus on the “issues” by doing some actual in-class polls! Next, we’ll try a Corporate Assessment Model, “CAM”, a business tool; by which we can rank the issues AND the candidates!

Finally, we will do a class electoral vote prediction! Do just 6% of eligible voters actually decide an election? How can we voters be part of that 6%!

A cell-phone and some familiarity with Q/R codes is helpful, but not required.

This is a non-partisan discussion!
