Show Notes

We've been besieged by polls in the days leading up to the presidential election, but we thought one poll in particular was really interesting. It's called the 2020 Ram Poll, and it was conducted by West Chester University statistics professor Laura Pyott and her students. Today on KYW Newsradio In Depth Professor Pyott joins the podcast to talk about why they decided to set up a survey and what they found out by polling college students across Pennsylvania.
