PPP (D) Democratic Voters Overwhelmingly Think Clinton Won Debate

[DemocratSinceBirth]

A Public Policy Polling survey of Democratic primary voters nationally who watched tonight’s debate finds that it reinforced Hillary Clinton’s front runner status. Viewers overwhelmingly think she won the debate, and particularly trust her over the rest of the Democratic field when it comes to issues of national security.

Key findings from the survey include:

-67% of voters think Clinton won the debate, to 20% for Bernie Sanders and 7% for Martin O’Malley. On a related note 63% of viewers said the debate gave them a more positive opinion of Clinton, compared to 41% who said it gave them a more positive opinion of Sanders, and 37% who said it gave them a more positive opinion of O’Malley.

-Clinton is by a wide margin the candidate debate watchers trust the most on national security issues. 75% say they have the most faith in Clinton on that front, compared to only 17% for Sanders, and 5% for O’Malley. National security issues were a primary focus tonight in the aftermath of yesterday’s tragedy in France, and Democratic voters by far and away trust Clinton the most on that issue.

-What’s particularly striking is how universal the sentiment that Clinton won the debate tonight is among all the different groups within the Democratic Party. 86% of African Americans, 73% of women, 70% of moderates, 69% of seniors, 67% of Hispanics, 65% of liberals, 61% of white voters, 58% of men, and 50% of younger voters all think that Clinton was the winner of tonight’s debate.

I thought all our stellar candidates acquitted themselves admirably and provided a vivid contrast with our opponents on the other side.

*This research was conducted on behalf of Correct The Record. That's the beauty of the scientific method, ergo:




The scientific method is a way to ask and answer scientific questions by making observations and doing experiments.
The steps of the scientific method are to:

Ask a Question
Do Background Research
Construct a Hypothesis
Test Your Hypothesis by Doing an Experiment
Analyze Your Data and Draw a Conclusion
Communicate Your Results

There will be more scientific polls released in the coming days. They will either verify or contradict PPP's findings. I would literally wager on the latter.

1. Pretty much debunked, by a Hillary supporter

2. Good investment by Correct The Record

unless it backfires.

12. If Sanders campaigned had commissioned PPP to conduct a poll would claim bias?

16. The unbiased poll I'm looking for

is the one in the local school classroom on caucus day.

3. Except for that rather large unforced fault.

Hillary Clinton has a lot to answer for in the response we all know was planned, probably rehearsed. Unfortunately, it was a klunker. A big klunker!

4. According to a statistical analyst who supports Hillary that's "bullshit".

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1251&pid=810541

It was paid for by Hillary's Super PAC.

13. And if Sanders camp had paid for and commissed the poll would it be bullshit?

17. If the poll was bullshit on statistical and methodological grounds, yes. Pretty Simple? Yes. n/t

5. K AND R!

6. When the problem in politics is Superpacs, probably a good idea not to tout....

...a poll paid for by a superpac.



Correct The Record is a strategic research and rapid response team designed to defend Hillary Clinton from baseless attacks.

7. Many are claiming this poll is invalid due to being paid for by a pro-Hillary superpac.

I find it hard to believe PPP, one of the most respected polling operations in the country, would purposely falsify polling data.

I think this is poll is probably accurate. Hillary was again on top of her game last night. There were some tough questions but she handled them well and again looked and sounded presidential, much more than the other two contenders.

11. Gravis was the first pollster to release a poll after the first debate.

Gravis was the first pollster to release a poll after the first debate. That poll too was casually dismissed, until its findings were confirmed by other polls. I expect we are seeing the same phenomenon repeat itself.

Mean=average
Median= that number by which half fall below and half rise above.

20. Tom Jensen, director of Public Policy Polling: "a big win for Secretary Clinton"

Tom Jensen, director of Public Policy Polling, defended the survey's accuracy.

"Most polls are conducted for paying clients, it doesn't impact how they're conducted," Jensen wrote in an email Sunday night.

Jensen noted that his organization's poll found similar results to the one conducted by CBS.

"Our polls and theirs were the only scientific polls done on the debate that I'm aware of and were in agreement that it was a big win for Secretary Clinton," Jensen wrote.
