oh wait now i see you posted a thing about it.

see?

old.

i wish that my back didn't hurt all the time and that my hair weren't thinning. still: where's a good guide to these ballot measures? because i don't know what to make of them.

really looking forward to this one

So, in your view, does this poll reflect a significant phenomenon (falling support for Israel among New Yorkers) that you think is positive? Or should the poll results be discounted because the Times, in your view, lacks credibility on the underlying issue?

Because it didn’t, it’s hard to judge the significance of the findings—an indeterminacy reflected by the headline (“Gaza War Turns New Yorkers Against Israel, With Mayor’s Race as Backdrop”).

Clearly that’s true for some subset of voters. I just wish the poll had tried to measure the salience of the issue for the entire electorate (as represented by the sample). 1/2

But did they vote for him *because* of those things? Or do those things just not really matter that much to them? Big difference between those two explanations.

But the poll neglects to measure the salience of this issue for these respondents. How much do they care about it relative to other things?

Downright Hutzian

yeah the sourcing here is thin. i mean, who knows, maybe this will happen. but i'd want much more to go on before betting on it.
