What is amazing about this poll result is that 1) these are not "values" and 2) all of the "values" they ask about have a completely different context than in the prior surveys - Interpreting them is a BIG challenge and everyone in the polling world knows it

Is the influence of question wording about framing or comprehension? We find it is often both.

Democracy is like the McRib. It's here now, and it will be around for a little bit longer, so enjoy it while you can.

22 months ago a violent insurrection inspired by the President sought to overturn a democratic election and prevent the peaceful transfer of power. The threat is now, if anything, worse. 2020 denialism is now pervasive & the legitimacy of the 2022 election is already under attack

Do all the laid off Twitter employees have a valid noncompete clause or are they instead perfectly poised to create a rival social network?

What’s with the messages fear-mongering about a “Democrat utopia” or a “socialist utopia?” I’d be fine with an autocratic utopia, it’s the dystopias that worry me.

1) Dem ads I've seen on abortion are missing the boat. It's not the procedure that's relevant to most voters. Most are beyond reproductive age, can't get pregnant, or don't think they'll need an abortion.

For those wondering why political scientists are really worried about democracy in the US.

And we should expect this trend to continue as maternal mortality and non-viable live births increase post-Dobbs.

The alternative to organized political parties is not independence. It is chaos, inaction, and ultimately authoritarianism.

It’s hard to accept that the U.S. is heading towards democratic collapse.
So, I photoshopped some potential headlines to show #WhatsToCome if we don’t act now…

I used to be an evangelical. Let me tell you a little about why they worked so hard to get us here.🧵
Evangelicals have been deeply indoctrinated in rigid thinking. If you think you can compromise with them, you're wrong, because they're 100% certain God is on their side. 1/x
