@skoczela @nataliemj10 @drjjdyck at best, it's real and overcome by campaigns. at worst, it's sampling error. in between, it's illusory--maybe it's acquiescence bias, maybe it's liberal question-writer bias, maybe it's something else. whatever the explanation, hard to see the good — PolitiTweet.org

@nataliemj10 @skoczela @drjjdyck there's a ~15 point bias on *college educational attainment* in unweighted national RDD data! who knows how big the biases can be! and i'm not trying to write off all issue questions, but i see zero reason to think it's healthier than horserace and i think it could be far worse — PolitiTweet.org
