Comparing the October and November Marquette polls: There's something screwy going on


Marquette Poll shows support for impeachment has slipped in Wisconsin as Trump leads 4 top Democratic rivals.   (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 11/20/2019)

From October to November, 18 to 29 year olds increased their disapproval rating of Trump by 7 percentage points.

From October to November, 30 to 44 year olds flipped 11 points from disapproval to approval.

From October to November, 45 to 59 year olds increased their approval rating by 7 percentage points.

From October to November, those 60 and older increased their disapproval rating by 5 percentage points.

Apparently, Boomers have something in common with Millennials.


It gets screwier.

From October to November, 18 to 29 year olds shifted their opinion of impeachment by 18 (!!) percentage points, from +11 yes to -7 no.

From October to November, 30 to 44 year olds increased their opposition to impeachment by 18 percentage points.

From October to November, 45 to 59 year olds remained opposed to impeachment by 20 percentage points.  No change, in other words.

From October to November, those respondents 60 and older narrowed their opposition to impeachment by 2 percentage points.


Just plain weird.  Some wild swings among the crosstabs.
