LWV-Downeast hosts a monthly radio program on democracy in cooperation with WERU FM.
We'll talk about whether modern polling techniques have been good for democracy. Is polling a reflection of public opinion; is it shaping public opinion; or is it distorting public opinion? Who is it helping? And how can we be responsible consumers of polling information? More information here.
Special guests:
- Ashley Koning, Director of the Eagleton Institute of Politics at Rutgers University
- Dan Shea, Chair and Professor of Government at Colby College
This show will be pre-recorded; no listener calls will be taken. Comments and questions may be emailed to news@weru.org with Democracy Forum on the subject line.
