Summary: Prior to this November's midterm elections, Monday Night Philosophy dives into 2016's political polling. Josh Libresco examines what the polls can teach us about the 2016 presidential election, even as American pollsters attempt to make sense of an election that was very different from anything Americans have seen in generations. Libresco will explain why it was especially difficult for pollsters to make predictions in 2016 and what techniques they use in an effort to understand how and why people vote the way they do. He will also offer insights into the November 2018 congressional elections and California's governor and Senate races. MLF Organizer Name George Hammond Notes MLF: Humanities
