The Society of Presidential Pollsters Founder, Mark Penn, Will Discuss “American Government in the 21^st Century” Annual Poll Results

WASHINGTON and NEW YORK, Sept. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Today, the GW Graduate School of Political Management (GSPM) Society of Presidential Pollsters Founder Mark Penn, in conversation with Christopher Arterton, professor emeritus and founding dean of the GW Graduate School of Political Management, will reveal the results of the latest “American Government in the 21st Century” annual survey, which takes the pulse of the American people on a wide range of issues related to how elected officials and public institutions are serving them. The complete survey results can be found here.

“Trust in major government institutions is declining again because polarization and partisanship are dominating the discussion,” said Penn. “Politicians are intentionally stoking the distrust, but if our institutions can’t support each other they will all suffer the consequences together.”

Trust in presidency, Supreme Court and Congress declines after several years of stagnation

Voters increasingly believe these institutions are not functioning properly: 68% say Congress is not working (up 9 points), 59% say the same of the presidency (up 9), and 49% say so about the Supreme Court (up 6).
Voters believe these institutions are becoming increasingly politicized: Majorities say the presidency is becoming more politicized (67%, up 7 from last year), as well as Congress (66%, up 5) and the Supreme Court (55%, up 4).

Concerns about presidential authority grow

55% of voters say executive orders are increasingly being abused.
Although most voters still say the presidency should have the same amount of power, 29% now think it should have less power, up 5 points from last year.

Voters remain passionate about free speech

92% of voters think the country should have freedom of speech.
85% of voters, up 5 points from last year, say we need to strengthen First Amendment freedoms rather than limit more areas of speech.

Bipartisanship breakdown is intensifying but voters still want it

81% of voters say the bipartisan system of governing is broken, back up to pandemic levels after two years of improvement.
72% of voters say bipartisan support is necessary for major policy change.

The event will be held from noon -1:30 PM EDT today in the City View Room. If you would like to attend, please RSVP here.

The George Washington University established the Society of Presidential Pollsters in 2010. The Society acts as a membership organization for the select group of people who have served as public opinion advisors to the President of the United States. The Society aims to collect and preserve records of the polling conducted on behalf of the White House over the last eight decades.

HarrisX, on behalf of the Society of Presidential Pollsters, conducted the survey online between Sept. 8 – 11, 2023 among 2,001 registered voters who were randomly recruited to participate in it. Results were weighted for age within gender, region, race or ethnicity, income, education, political party, and political ideology where necessary to align them with their actual proportions in the population. The margin for error was +/- 2.2%.

The event coincides with National Black Business Month in the United States

NEW YORK, Aug. 18, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Stagwell, the challenger network built to transform marketing, in collaboration with Allison+Partners today announced it will host a panel and networking event to discuss driving collaboration with and renewed investments in Black-owned and operated media outlets and platforms on August 24, 2023. The panel will stream on LinkedIn.

“Black-Owned Media in America: Recognizing Value, Contributions and the Need for Partnership” will convene top executives from media platforms Ebony Magazine, Pod Digital Media, ReachTV and The Africa Channel for an in-person panel and networking event to share upcoming media and partnership opportunities within their respective organizations. The in-person event will take place at Stagwell’s global headquarters at One World Trade Center in New York City on Thursday, August 24 from 2:00 – 4:30 PM ET. The panel will be followed by an in-person networking hour. Interested attendees can request an invite by emailing hello@stagwellglobal.com.

Panelists include:

Ashlee Glenn, EVP, Brand & Marketing for EBONY Media, which has served as the leading voice of the Black American experience for more than 75 years, and under new ownership, has recently grown into a multi-media entity, covering cultural news, entertainment, and lifestyle with a commitment to Move Black Forward across Ebony.com, EBONY Studios, EBONY Publishing, and JET.
Gary Coichy, Founder and CEO of POD Digital Media (PDM), the first Multicultural Podcast Network focused primarily on African American & Hispanic audience segments, with over 400 owned and operated podcasters.
Lynnwood Bibbens, CEO & Founder of ReachTV, the largest airport television network with 2,500+ screens in 90 commercial airports and streaming into over 500,000 hotel rooms across North America.
Narendra Reddy, Chief Operating Officer at The Africa Channel, a cable and streaming channel focusing on travel, lifestyle, and culture documentaries with a mission to educate and entertain global audiences about contemporary Africa and the diaspora, while building bridges between cultures and black communities worldwide.

“Black-owned media is an intrinsic and key part of the media landscape in America with a long history of celebrating, advocating and showcasing the full spectrum of the Black American experience and culture in a balanced and empowering way,” said Claudine Moore, Managing Director, Allison+Partners and moderator for the event. “Too often Black-owned media is overlooked in terms of partnerships, investment, media buys and more by agencies and brands. This leads to inequalities that impact the growth of this critical sector and the industry needs to continue to work to correct this.”

“This event is one way that we’re collaborating with other Stagwell agencies to find long-term solutions that improve investment in multicultural media, ultimately helping brands engage more meaningfully with diverse consumers,” added Moore.

Climate Justice and the Creative Industry

72andSunny

with Lots of good ideas, C-90, AAPI Victory Fund/Working Families Party

VOTE HERE.

The DEI movement within the creative industry has made strides in recent years. From Chief Diversity Officers to ERGs to more transparency.

But, there’s a long way to go. One such area is climate justice — the intersection of the climate crisis and social & equity issues. As climate change disproportionately affects women and marginalized communities around the world, there is an opportunity for DEI allies within the creative industry and outside of it to also consider a push for a clean & sustainable future. From internal initiatives & policy to their clients & the work they do for them.

Bringing It Home: Using Your Brand To Impact Public Policy

72andSunny

with Zillow

VOTE HERE.

Everyone deserves to get a home free of discrimination but unfair housing policies continue to prevent this from happening – today, the homeownership gap between Black and white households is still almost as wide as it was in 1970.
This session dives into how Zillow’s brand purpose – to make home a reality for more people – informs the brand’s marketing and consumer advocacy efforts, such as addressing fair housing policies and partnering with the White House to make rental costs more transparent. Hear about how your brand can inspire teams to elevate your industry and customer experience.

AR: Transforming Social Interactions & Live Events

ARound x Assembly x NRG

with Lenovo and Minnesota Twins

VOTE HERE.

Join us for a dynamic panel delving into Augmented Reality’s (AR) transformative role in social interactions and live events. Our experts will share AR’s on gaming, live entertainment, and sports with case studies and future forecasts. Learn how businesses leverage AR for enhanced engagement, discover best practices, and uncover emerging trends. We’ll also discuss AR’s role in fostering inclusivity, its challenges, and ethical considerations. Uncover AR’s limitless potential and challenges.

The Future of Spatial Interaction and Storytelling

ARound

with 3lb Games, Medici XD, and Immersive XR Design

VOTE HERE.

The urgency to create equitable communities where all people thrive continues, but most solutions have been slow to bring change. Especially in Minneapolis, which has one of the largest racial wealth gaps in the nation. But a pioneering movement in the city is building a vibrant community that supports business development, celebrates culture and nurtures belonging so Black people can thrive. Hear how this unique approach, fueled by creative, corporate and civic partners, is expected to transform Minneapolis’ reputation while providing a powerful blueprint for change across the country.

Avoiding Performative Advocacy

Assembly

with Frederic Chen, Teach Many, and Mac Cosmetics

VOTE HERE.

Consumers crave authenticity, seeking brands with shared values that advocate for causes close to their heart. However, there’s a fine line between genuine advocacy and performative gestures that miss the mark. How can brands strike the right balance? In this panel, we’ve gathered a diverse group of top content creators and marketers who have mastered the art of genuine advocacy. They’ll share their insights, experiences, and strategies to help you navigate brand responsibility and ignite meaningful partnerships.

On the Offensive: Can Athletes and Creators Own Their Brands

Code and Theory

with ON_Discourse and Calaxy

VOTE HERE.

You’re a creator, an entertainer, or a famous athlete on, say, the Brooklyn Nets. What does ownership of your brand mean? How do you monetize it in the digital landscape? The answers aren’t so simple. Join Spencer Dinwiddie, NBA star and Co-founder of Calaxy, a groundbreaking platform empowering creators, and Solo Ceesay, Co-founder of Calaxy, for a contrarian discussion about brand ownership today. Led by Dan Gardner, Executive Chairman of Code and Theory, the panel will cover trends, challenges, and opportunities that arise when athletes and fans embrace the creator economy.

Vital Signs of Hope: Optimism for AI in Healthcare

Code and Theory

with Hoag and Sutter Health

VOTE HERE.

Detecting signs of diseases, earlier.
Personalizing care, at scale.
Cost savings, consistently.
These are the realities of AI and healthcare. But there’s whispers throughout the industry about AI upending operations and spurring job loss. The truth is — it may be all of the above.
This contrarian panel chooses optimism.
Hear from leaders at Sutter Health, Hoag and Code and Theory as they examine how harnessing the power of AI, analytics, and innovative technologies can deliver positive, lasting change that our healthcare is in desperate need of.

Don’t Say ‘Diversity.’ What Inclusion Actually Sounds Like

Code and Theory

VOTE HERE.

Is your brand offending your audience? You may not think so, but did you know the term “diverse” centers whiteness as the norm? Historically excluded groups are all too familiar with these nuances and it’s past time that marketers caught up. Join ‘Words Up: Inclusive Writing Guide’ co-author Kirstyn Nimmo to learn how to resonate with wider audiences and protect your brand, while discussing 10 layers of identity (e.g. race, ability, gender, sexuality, age & more.) Attendees will be invited to inform the guide’s third update by sharing their thoughts on inclusive and exclusive language.

The Future of Fishing is Female: Transforming an Old Pastime

Colle McVoy

with Recreational Boating & Fishing Foundation, Conde Nast, and Aritzia

VOTE HERE.

Fishing may be one of America’s oldest pastimes, but a great many Americans don’t feel welcomed into the sport, especially women. That is changing drastically through an innovative program transforming the way fishing is perceived. Using proprietary data showing the profound impact of the sport on women and girls, as well as unprecedented partnerships with influential creators, media brands and publishers like Hypebae, Vanity Fair and Forbes, fishing is getting a reputation refresh. Hear about the strategies and insights that are making it trend and grow with younger and diverse audiences.

Why More Brands Should Be Leveraging Co-Creation Strategies

Crispin Porter + Bogusky x Hunter

with Kids of Immigrants and Diageo

VOTE HERE.

How did a whiskey made in Scotland but loved in Latin America recruit the next generation of Hispanic American drinkers? Buchanan’s built a brand that’s become the fastest growing Scotch* by celebrating the rich duality of the Hispanic American community with a creative strategy driven and made by the target consumer for the target consumer. By adding consumers into the equation across all touch points, Buchanan’s has learned more about the communities they serve while cultivating a space for authentic storytelling, led by the people that know best.

How to Decarbonize Creativity and Create Clean

GALE

with Clean Creatives, Brown Girl Green/Green Jobs Board, and Lush Fresh Handmade Cosmetics

VOTE HERE.

We want to introduce the movement to shift creativity away from working with major polluters and into a creative climate-positive future. Greenwashing for polluters can harm clean tech companies and clean brands, and impacts the ability to recruit diverse young talent. However, there is a growing movement inside the ad, PR, and creator industries to support the climate transition – and it is making a major impact.

In three fireside chats, we’ll talk with creative leaders about how taking real action on the climate crisis is integral to their creative work, and building stronger businesses.

Business Is Addicted to Advertising

Redscout

with Bombas and Lands’ End

VOTE HERE.

The ease and low cost of advertising has distorted the way business is run.
– It is allowing undifferentiated propositions to continue to grow by replacing the users they lose with new ones.
– It has fueled the growth of new-wave single product DTC businesses that are incapable of diversifying and compete for the same millennial consumers.

And across the consumer economy, it is focussing too much resources on user acquisition and away from user experience and value creation.

Lastly it is shaping a consumer economy fueled by unsustainable consumption that is destroying the planet.

Athlete as a Brand: Creating Authentic Connections

Stagwell

with Back to Our Roots and I AM ATHLETE

VOTE HERE.

Athletes today are building businesses, nonprofits, and creating identities that go well beyond the court, field and stadium. They’re interested in having meaningful conversations with brands that want to invest dollars not just in the person’s athletic success, but in who they are and what they stand for. Brands will learn best practices to create authentic relationships with athletes while driving new value for consumers. And athletes will walk away with a new playbook for how they can make the most out of their own personal brand.
