The '24 Election is here! Let’s 1) Review POTUS “Approval” history from 1945 to 2020, 2) Explore how better voter polls are done, 3) Discuss “Pundits”, 4) Define “Generations” and 5) Review current polls and focus on the “issues” by doing some actual in-class polls! Next, we’ll try a Corporate Assessment Model, “CAM”, a business “tool" by which we can rank the issues AND the candidates. Finally, we will do a class electoral vote prediction. Do just 6% of eligible voters actually decide an election? How can we voters be part of that 6%! A cell-phone and some familiarity with Q/R codes is helpful, but not required. This is a non-partisan discussion.
