Defining a National Emergency

In this week’s episode of Poll Hub, what constitutes a national emergency? According to Elaine Kamarck, Founding Director of the Center for Effective Public Management & Senior Fellow in Governance Studies at the Brookings Institution, it is all in the perception of the president. How does this national emergency differ from those declared by previous presidents, and how does this fit into the overall Trump modus operandi? Kamarck joins the Poll Hub team and offers her insights. Plus, a look at Americans’ attitudes about the national emergency, compliments of the latest NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist Poll.

Then, what can we tell about the 2020 presidential contest from each of the candidate’s social media accounts? Our very own Jay DeDapper dug deep into the statistics and shares his observations.

About Poll Hub

Poll Hub goes behind the science to explain how polling works, what polls really show, and what the numbers really mean. Poll Hub is produced by The Marist College Institute for Public Opinion, home of America’s leading independent college public opinion poll, The Marist Poll. Lee Miringoff (Director of The Marist College Institute for Public Opinion), Barbara Carvalho (Director of The Marist Poll), and Jay DeDapper (Director of Innovation at The Marist Poll) dig deep to give you a look at the inner workings of polls and what they tell us about our world, our country, and ourselves.
