#80: Smells like a divided electorate

By Voxtopica

Margie squeezes in a few hours of staycation, while Kristen is on the road. But even during a slow week there are still polls to amaze or depress you.   Poll of the week: smells like teen spirit? What do Milwaukee voters think the election smells like? Um, nothing you'd want to turn into a scratch-n-sniff sticker. Hart/Annenberg school focus group   2016 The race is tightening! But just a little. Washington Post/ABC News poll HP: Trump vs. Clinton two-way HP Trump vs. Clinton  vs. Johnson David Plouffe tweets More HP polls HP on college educated whites WP on the White Catholic vote HP/YouGov on ads vs news HP on voters' trust   Trump immigration policy? All of them. Says who? Is it a softening, or a hardening? Kristen's examiner column Pew study on immigration Gallup on immigration   Divisions on guns getting wider Tier-one versus tier-two policies, while party differences widen, Pew study on guns   Back to school! Have  you gotten all your polling done in time for the first day Gallup on satisfaction with schooling Retailmenot   Key findings: Whether the race is narrowing or staying stable, as far as Margie’s concerned, it’s always time to panic about a potential president trump. There’s common ground on immigration--but maybe not on trump’s different positions on immigration. Meanwhile, don’t worry folks, were also becoming increasingly partisan on guns and education. So there’s that. At least my back to school shopping is done! And this i can promise you: it will be decades before i spend more on my children’s clothes than on my own.
