Topics
Galen Druke:就目前选情,对未来两个月可能出现的变化进行了探讨,包括民调波动、民调误差来源、辩论的影响以及潜在的"十月惊奇"。 Nathaniel Rakich:分析了历史民调数据,指出劳工节后民调波动幅度通常较小,但仍存在不确定性。他强调了民调误差的多种来源,包括抽样误差和无回应误差,并指出即使民调准确,也可能存在误差,尤其是在选情胶着的州。他还讨论了辩论对选举的影响,认为其影响有限,但对卡玛拉·哈里斯而言,这次辩论尤为重要。 Ruth Egelnik:关注民调误差,特别指出对第三方候选人、拉丁裔选民的支持率测量以及州一级民调的误差。她认为,准确测量拉丁裔选民的支持率是一个挑战,需要考虑受教育程度和语言等因素。她还指出,民调在衡量非常接近的选举方面表现不佳,但它们在显示大方向方面仍然很有价值。她还讨论了选民的关注度,指出选民的关注度提前到来,这可能导致劳工节后民调波动更大。 Nathaniel Rakich:对历史民调数据进行了分析,指出劳工节后民调波动幅度通常较小,但仍存在不确定性。他强调了民调误差的多种来源,包括抽样误差和无回应误差,并指出即使民调准确,也可能存在误差,尤其是在选情胶着的州。他还讨论了辩论对选举的影响,认为其影响有限,但对卡玛拉·哈里斯而言,这次辩论尤为重要。他还谈到了竞选广告的影响,认为大量竞选广告支出可能互相抵消,对选举结果的影响有限。 Ruth Egelnik:关注民调误差,特别指出对第三方候选人、拉丁裔选民的支持率测量以及州一级民调的误差。她认为,准确测量拉丁裔选民的支持率是一个挑战,需要考虑受教育程度和语言等因素。她还指出,民调在衡量非常接近的选举方面表现不佳,但它们在显示大方向方面仍然很有价值。她还讨论了选民的关注度,指出选民的关注度提前到来,这可能导致劳工节后民调波动更大。她还谈到了"十月惊奇"的可能性,指出2020年就发生了多起"十月惊奇",例如金斯伯格大法官去世和特朗普感染新冠病毒。 Galen Druke:就目前选情,对未来两个月可能出现的变化进行了探讨,包括民调波动、民调误差来源、辩论的影响以及潜在的"十月惊奇"。他还讨论了总统辩论和个别网络采访的影响,指出总统辩论比个别网络采访的影响更大,因为它的受众更广。
