This blog is for students in Ms. Aby-Keirstead's AP US Government class in Bloomington, MN. It is for students to post their thoughts on current events and governmental affairs. Students should be respectful & think of this forum as an extension of their classroom. The instructor has the same expectations for classroom discussion & blog posts.

Polling in the News this week

On my drive home tonight I heard 2 stories in a row about polling which I found fascinating.  But I'm not going to see you until Thursday!  So I decided to post them here in case you can or want to listen to them:

 Story 1 was about Republican entrepreneur Jay Faison tells NPR's Robert Siegel why his foundation, ClearPath, brought together GOP pollsters to help find a way to get Americans to take climate change serious.  

 Story 2 was about how Planned Parenthood recently has become a flashpoint in the 2016 presidential campaign, especially among GOP candidates. But public opinion about the organization isn't changing much.

 I look forward to talking with you about public opinion more on Thursday.

Thank you for posting those articles, Meredith! I truly enjoyed reading them and relating them to what we've discussed in class.
