The gender gap rightly gets lots of attention. In @MULawPoll men are +12 for Trump, women +14 for Harris in Wisc. But other demographic group gaps are larger and deserve attention. Most extreme is born-again vs no religion. But see city vs rural, 18-29 vs 45-59. And groups 50-50.

Talking with a lot of grad students at #AEJMCMW22 this week about free ways to collect social media content. I am in awe that there isn't more training on these collection strategies (including for qual scholars).
