September 5: Laura Merrifield Wilson, Political Polling
Pollsters were notoriously incorrect in the 2016 election. Nearly one year later, we analyze what went wrong and, one year from a critical midterm election for both the state and nation, we consider the revisions necessary to ensure accurate and reliable polling for the future
Laura Merrifield Wilson is an Assistant Professor of Political Science at the University of Indianapolis, where she joined the faculty in 2014.
