𝙎𝙥𝙚𝙖𝙠𝙚𝙧 𝘼𝙣𝙙𝙧𝙚𝙬 𝘽𝙖𝙪𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙣, a partner with the Global Strategy Group, will share how polls are developed to gauge the preferences, opinions, and attitudes of voters on a wide range of issues, candidates, and policies. Andrew will aid us in understanding the importance of polling and how they can provide insights into the political climate and potentially predict electoral outcomes.
Named one of the “winners” of the 2022 elections in Colorado and praised by the media for his “remarkably accurate” polling, Andrew Baumann began his career as a physicist before deciding to give up supercolliders for Senate campaigns. Since becoming a strategist and pollster nearly two decades ago, he has provided research and strategic advice to political campaigns, issue advocacy organizations, unions, and foundations. In addition to his political work, Andrew has also polled for numerous advocacy groups with a particular focus on climate, clean energy and conservation issues.

You will have the opportunity to ask questions during the program.

Note: I am a member of the AAUW-WA Online Branch and have helped plan this program. I will be handling the Q & A portion of the program. It is an interesting topic to me not only because of our recent political history but because I have been a candidate in numerous elections myself and I also served for several years on a polling panel of the Gallup Poll. Everyone who registers will also receive links to additional materials following the program.
