Suggestions for Pollsters so that Trump-like Victory is Not a Surprise | RBDR

November 28th, 2016. Today on RBDR:

1) AOL announces to its employees that a corporate restructuring will make DATA one of the three corporate focuses.

2) Andrew Grenville of MARU/Matchbox makes the case that election pollsters should create an online community that it can return to over an extended period of a campaign. It can shine a light on changes in voter attitudes and behavior, making it far more valuable than one-time survey takers.

3) Recommended viewing: this week’s Fareed Zakaria GPS on CNN for a segment he produced with Steven Johnson concerning the traditional positive impact of “fun,” which points to research’s adoption of gamification as an important initiative.
