On the Issues: Marquette Law School Poll

Marquette University Law School is pleased to bring you the results of a new statewide poll on Wednesday, August 7, in an in-person event featuring Charles Franklin, professor of law and public policy and director of the Marquette Law School Poll, and Derek Mosley, director of the school’s Lubar Center for Public Policy Research and Civic Education.

The program will begin at 12:15 p.m. CDT in Eckstein Hall. This program is free and open to the public. Please register at law.marquette.edu to attend in person or virtually. A light lunch will be available. The program will also be livestreamed on the Law School’s website via the “Watch Now” button for those unable to join us in person.

The Marquette Law School Poll’s August 2024 survey of Wisconsin focuses on the public response to Vice President Kamala Harris’ becoming the presumptive Democratic nominee. The poll includes the head-to-head and multicandidate presidential “horse race,” as well as how Harris and former President Donald Trump compare on a variety of issues and personal characteristics. Respondents are also asked about their perceptions of President Joe Biden and his decision to withdraw from the race. The survey includes the race for U.S. Senate between Sen. Tammy Baldwin and Eric Hovde and looks at the impact of third party candidates in that race. Attention to the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee and perceptions of a number of Republican and Democratic officials, including vice-presidential nominee JD Vance, are included.

Various poll findings will be synchronously noted on Twitter via the @MULawPoll account. A complete news release and poll data, including toplines, crosstabs, and slides from the discussion, will be available on the Marquette Law School Poll website, shortly after 1:15 p.m., following the event.
