Insightful analysis of Utah’s Republican primary by @ProfKarpo for Utah News Dispatch. #utpol
utahnewsdispatch.com
The 2024 primary tested Donald Trump's influence on Utah Republicans. Cox, Curtis' wins shows many Utahns still balk at MAGA-style politics.

@ProfKarpo, @quinmonson, @jrpjrpjrp, & @agimenez05 argue that existing explanations of the partisan gender gap undervalue voters’ contributions by focusing on voter responses to candidate sex rather than candidate gender. #APSRFirstView. https://t.co/R6CkDHNs0c

I played a role in conceptualizing this unique study (w/ @YouGovAmerica data) of 2024 election “pivot” voters in battleground states. Full full topline and memo of results, check out the link at the end of this thread from @y2analytics
General election polls at this stage in the race only mean so much. To help fill in the gaps, we propose an alternative view with a first-of-its-kind study about Pivot Voters.

⚡️RESULTS⚡️ Sizable persuasive advantage to targeting! Pooling across the 2 issues, targeting was ~70% more persuasive than single-best message and >200% more than naive. But NO return to *micro*targeting - targeting using 2 or 4 characteristics was no better than just 1 char

Want to read more about the shift among Mormons away from the Republican party. This goes into a lot more depth. https://t.co/BQznTqfgTB

It was powerful to sing with Cantorum this morning (I’m hidden behind the bass drum). One doesn’t often get the chance to sing with bagpipes and organ at full tilt (plus the brass quintet on other numbers).
Celebrating Reformation Sunday at the Kirkin‘ o’ th’ Tartan service with our friends at the First Presbyterian Church. Highland Cathedral gets me every time.

Please bear with the thread, but Harry Reid meant a lot to me and I want to share a short story about why. In 2002, I was press secretary for Senator Paul Wellstone’s re-election campaign in Minnesota.

A Utah Rep. has embraced one of the most absurd conspiracy theories imaginable: A vast (and ineffective) effort to hack voting machines to steal votes IN UTAH, a state that hasn’t gone Dem in nearly 60 years. It defies logic. #utpol

A Utah state Rep. is touting a far-fetched conspiracy theory, backed by the My Pillow Guy, to call into question the state's election integrity.

What is the proper term to describe someone who lives in Utah? Our survey results overwhelmingly show that it's 'Utahn'. We are calling on national news orgs and Utah institutions to update their style guides. @APStylebook

This is something an overwhelming majority of Utah residents agree on- Call Me a Utahn! Let's get the national media to acknowledge our Utah tradition. @latimes @SpencerJCox @utahsenate @AP @sltrib @DeseretNews @NYPostOpinion @SpectrumNews @nytimes #CitiesWork @USATODAY

Much of academic publishing is not a moneymaking venture. Today I received a statement in the mail from a publisher to tell me my royalty for 2020 was 90 cents.

What’s better than granting a scholarship for every Utah Jazz win this season? Getting to tell the recipients that their life is about to change ❤️

“The Hill We Climb” by @TheAmandaGorman was the inauguration highlight for me. It was made more meaningful having heard this story about her early this morning. I smiled with every r sound. https://t.co/4NXTsfNPlu

This is a fantastic internship!
I’m super excited about my new internship in the Lieutenant Governor’s office this semester 😬 and I couldn’t ask for a better supervisor. My staff told me that interns open the mail, so I guess I’m adding that to my to-do list. @BYU @SpencerJCox #utpol

This is a great read about the pathologies of unlimited partisanship by @JeremyCPope (and refreshed my recollection of a now ominous dinner with colleagues)
@JeremyCPope has some great insights into our politics today. Give it a read: https://t.co/NV8hrrP5ql

I think I’ve found a new font to try...
@kkdumez @LiverightPub As the book designer who worked on J&JW, I'd just like to say how much I appreciate this conversation and I too *love* those exuberant capital Q's. Do note that the text proper is set in Garamond Premier Regular. The bold weight is used in the chapter titles and title page.
