The Monday Thought
Those of you who may remember the days of the Red Maryland Poll were probably wondering when this day was going to come. And it’s here. The first edition of The Duckpin Poll is finally here.
This is not like the polls of old. We are polling are individuals, all parties, about both the Democratic and the Republican primaries. We are also asking about potential general election results.
The numbers will be analyzed before publication. The responses will be vetted to try to limit ballot stuffing. We are going to do what we can do to make the numbers, though unscientific, as reflective of the current environment as possible.
The poll runs from today through January 11th. Click here to participate.
