Hunter Biden: What Voters Think
January 07, 2020 18:33 - 5 minutes - 4.98 MBLet's also look at a subject that the news media has oftentimes been reluctant to fully cover, which is Hunter Biden and his serving as a director on Burisma, the Ukrainian energy company. We've asked a few questions over the last couple of months. We've done a pretty thorough battery here, because given that what you see in most stories is that there's no evidence of corruption, I wanted to see here, what did the American people really think about this. And we asked them, have you ...
Vaping: What Voters Think
January 07, 2020 18:32 - 3 minutes - 2.84 MBA subject that's been in the news lately, vaping. We took a quick look at public opinion on vaping and on the controversy created by flavored vaping that spread like wildfire among teens. Do you think that electronic vaping is generally a safe substitute for tobacco or are there significant health concerns around vaping? 77% say there are significant health concerns, only 23% think that it is generally a safe substitute. Now I have no idea whether it is or isn't, but public opinion...
The Horowitz Report: What Voters Think
January 07, 2020 18:29 - 7 minutes - 6.86 MBNow, let's look at the Inspector General's report on the FBI and the Carter Page warrants. This topic is on almost the other side of what people see as important investigations. Only 22% were very familiar with this Inspector General's report. It's a pretty low number, considering the importance of the report. 46% said they were somewhat familiar. To the best of your knowledge, do you think the DOJ inspector report absolves the FBI of any mistakes or does it reveal patterns of viola...
The Latest Impeachment Numbers - What Voters Think
January 07, 2020 18:27 - 13 minutes - 12.1 MBNow let's take a look about the questions on impeachment. We've run a question for a very long period of time now. Do you think that for his actions President Trump should be impeached and removed from office, censured by Congress, or no action should be taken? 45% say impeach and remove, 15% censured, 40% no action. So if you look at that 55% the way I would look at it, say censure or no action, said censure is a mild resolution. 45% look for removal. Most of the time, that has run...
The 2020 Democratic Horse Race
January 07, 2020 17:59 - 6 minutes - 6.15 MB"Let's turn to the Democratic horse race. Some changes there and I think it's been reflected in a lot of the fundraising numbers that you've seen. Joe Biden continues to lead the pack in our poll. We look at Democrats nationwide and he's polling just a little over 30%. Bernie Sanders is now and has been number two at very close to 20%. Elizabeth Warren now in the low teens. Michael Bloomberg coming in at around 7%, tied with mayor Pete. Andrew Yang scoring in there about four or fiv...

2020 Election Numbers
November 12, 2019 19:32 - 4 minutes - 4.5 MBJoe Biden is still on top of the Democratic horserace, with 33% of the vote among Democrats. He is followed by Sanders at 18% and Warren at 15%. However, there are three important data points to keep in mind: (1) 60% of voters say they might still change their mind; (2) aside from Biden, majorities of voters think the other leading Democratic contenders are too far to the left; and (3) 60% of voters say they want to vote for a centrist candidate rather than someone more to the right...

Ukraine Showdown
November 12, 2019 19:31 - 13 minutes - 12.5 MBGeneral impeachment sentiment on President Trump is at 45% impeach, 15% Censure by Congress, and 40% take no action. We then ran an in depth battery of question Ukraine, and found: 74% of voters say they are paying close attention to the Trump-Ukraine story. A slight majority thinks that asking the Ukrainian leader to investigate the Bidens fits the threshold for impeaching a president (54%). Voters are split on whether asking Ukraine to investigate the Bidens is tantamount to invit...

October 29-31 Survey Analysis by Mark Penn
November 04, 2019 18:08 - 35 minutes - 32.8 MBPresident Trump’s approval month over month remains stable at 46%. Despite all the happenings around Ukraine and impeachment, our data suggests that Trump is being buoyed by his approval on the economy and fighting terrorism. Trumps economic approval is 57% and his approval in terms of handling terrorism is up 5 points month over month and after the special forces raid that killed ISIS leader Al-Baghdadi. Joe Biden is still on top of the Democratic horserace, with 33% of the vote a...
Media Bias
October 06, 2019 11:00 - 3 minutes - 3.56 MBNow, let's take a look at people's perceptions of bias in the media. Well, who do you trust more? President Trump or the media? Well, that's a tough question, because both the media and the President have very low levels of trust. So, I think we're going to have to maybe throw out some interesting questions and rate them separately from now on. But only 44% trust President Trump over the media, and 56% trust the media more than President Trump. A clear win, if you compare the two fo...
Immigration Reform - What Voters Think
October 05, 2019 10:00 - 4 minutes - 4.26 MBNow let's take a look at the immigration polling. 72% continue to support comprehensive immigration reform. Right? They favor a deal which brings together all of these elements of stronger security, eliminating the lottery, giving green cards or work permits to those who are here under DACA. And so we see once again that a majority of the American public supports an across the board compromise on the immigration issues, as month after month nothing moves through Congress. People ar...
Economic Outlook
October 04, 2019 10:00 - 5 minutes - 4.97 MBLet's take a deeper dive into some of the economic numbers, and see what Americans think the future is going to hold. Six months from now, do you think that we're going to be in a recession? 42% think that. 35% think that it's going to be the same as now, and 24% think it's going to be improving. So depending upon how you look at it, there's 59% that think it's going to be as good as it is now if not better, and 42% who are more pessimistic about the outcome of the economy. If we a...
Iran: What Voters Think
October 03, 2019 11:00 - 4 minutes - 4.27 MBWell, given the attack on Saudi Arabian oil facilities, we did some polling on Iran this month. First, we really start out do you consider each of the following an ally, an enemy, or neutral towards the United States? We polled on Iran, Russia, China, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, NATO, the European Union. The European Union, 58% say is an ally, not an overwhelming number. Not 90%. NATO, 51%. So clearly there are a lot of people who believe that our quote allies are maybe not allies, but mo...
2020 Horse Race
October 03, 2019 10:00 - 10 minutes - 9.7 MBLet's turn to the 2020 primary. I think that's almost taken a backseat to all of the other news that's going on, but there's no question in our poll, just like the other polls other there, Elizabeth Warren has become the one to watch. Joe Biden continues to hang onto his lead at 28%, down from the low 30s over time here. He has very strong vote among senior Democrats, and among African American Democrats, but Elizabeth Warren has been broadening her constituency. She really does ver...
Ukrainegate
October 03, 2019 02:00 - 8 minutes - 7.81 MBAs the Ukraine situation was developing, we managed to get here some of the earliest data, just before the full release of all the materials and of the whistleblower complaint. We were able to capture what the American public was thinking. First, we asked them have you heard anything involving issues related to the investments of Joe Biden's son? About half had. We asked them, in contrast, have they heard about President Trump and Guilliani wanting the Ukraine to investigate Joe Bid...
Kavanaugh Allegations
October 02, 2019 17:30 - 3 minutes - 3.32 MBIt may seem like a long time ago, but it was just about a week or two ago, that Justice Brett Kavanaugh faced a considerable storm over some new allegations during his early college years at a party. Do you support or oppose Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court? Split right down the middle. Did you? I think that question asks. Did you in the past support? It was split down the middle. 52 said they opposed it. 48% oppose ... Have you heard anything about ...
Mood of The Country
October 01, 2019 10:00 - 11 minutes - 10.2 MBSo, what's happening with the job approval of President Trump, given all of the chaos and issues and the partisan fights that we're seeing over impeachment? Well, this poll was taken just before the formal inquiry really was announced, but during the buildup and already information out about the whistleblower. So given all that, would we be expected a significant change in President Trump's job approval? We might have, but that's not what we saw. What we've seen over the last couple...
