New publication alert! My first article is out in Political Behavior! In it, I ask: Are politicians more influenced by personal stories than by statistical facts? I try answering this question with a series of preregistered survey experiments among Chilean elected officials.

Scientific polling is one of the greatest inventions for democracy over the last century. To have a government official know your opinion, you'd have to have the means to make your voice heard. Now, the common man can be represented & heard, and we're all the better for it. 1/2

When Trump ran in 2016, he received 12% of the vote in Chicago. This election, he almost doubled his percentage, receiving 22%. Trump won the Cook County jail precinct, white working class precincts with police and firefighter voters, and orthodox Jewish precincts. #twill

Voters in Chicago's "progressive belt" cast a lot of protest votes during March's Democratic presidential primary, and the same was true in the general. In 2020, only 1.4% of cast ballots wrote in or left President blank. Of the ballots counted so far in 2024, it's 2.5%.
