The Marquette Law School Poll’s August survey of Wisconsin looks at post-primary preferences in the races for governor and the U.S. Senate. The poll includes the public’s views of candidates and incumbent office holders, including approval ratings for President Joe Biden and Gov. Tony Evers, along with the favorability ratings for Sen. Ron Johnson, Sen. Tammy Baldwin, former President Donald Trump, and former Gov. Scott Walker.
The survey asks the public about their opinions on schools, the Jan. 6 hearings, abortion policy, confidence in the 2020 election, legalization of marijuana, and paid family leave. The poll also asks how concerned voters are about public schools, inflation, abortion policy, taxes, gun violence, the COVID-19 pandemic, illegal immigration, crime, and climate change.
The Marquette Law School Poll is the most extensive statewide polling project in Wisconsin history. Franklin has directed the poll since its inception in 2012 and is a professor of law and public policy at Marquette Law School. He co-founded pollster.com, an award-winning site for nonpartisan polling analysis. Franklin is a past president of the Society for Political Methodology and an elected fellow of the society; he holds a Ph.D. in political science from the University of Michigan.
