1. The seven most recent polls they looked at measured opinion about last weekend (Those covering Jan 19 in the polling dates). How many showed more support for removing Trump than opposition for removing Trump?
All of them slightly favored removal, with a wide range of margins (1 to 12 percent).
2. Which of these 7 polls found the most support for removing Trump? Which found the most opposition to removing Trump?
The FiveThirtyEight/Ipsos poll had a 12% net gain on support for removal. Monmouth and The Economist/YouGov only had a 1% net gain on support for removal. Gallup had a 5% net gain on opposition, but it is not within the 7 most recent polls.
3. In FiveThirtyEight's polling average, what percentage of Democrats support removing Trump from office? What percentage of Republicans support removing Trump from office?
83.9% of Democrats and 8.4% of Republicans.
4. What difference did the most recent Monmouth University poll find in the people who say they support removing Trump from office and those who support the House impeaching Trump?
When asking about removal, they were divided 49-48, but on impeachment, it was a clearer margin of 53-46.
5. Why does the author suggest that some Republicans may support removing Trump from office?
They likely support Mike Pence as a better President than Trump.
6. Why might the polls be misleading if they survey all adults as opposed to just likely voters?
Voters are more Republican than the general adult population, so by surveying nonvoters, the actual results could favor opposition to impeachment instead if you consider the voter population.
7. How do men and women think differently about whether or not a woman candidate can win a presidential election?
Women are less confident (79%), while men are more confident (89%).
8. Which demographic group of people caused the Atlanta Journal Constitution to adjust its polling formulas?
Underrepresented white people without a college degree were weighted against in the previous AJC poll, so that was corrected by removing education from the weight system.
9. Related to issues we were discussing last week, how do Americans feel about the Supreme Court potentially overturning Roe v Wade?
69% of Americans do not want to overturn the decision, but they still support certain restrictions such as the 24-hour waiting period on abortion.
