Criminal prosecution of Cambridge Analytica (SCL Elections Ltd) begins in UK tomorrow. It’s a crime to defy an order from the Information Commissioner’s Office. They refuse to disclose a complete US voter file despite a legal order from their regulator. ico.org.uk/media/action-w…
Meanwhile in the USA, our closest counterpart is the FTC and it is shutdown. Its Facebook Cambridge Analytica investigation is delayed. The FTC vs D-Link trial is now also delayed to the summer. #ShutdownStories
For the record, I won’t be attending the trial tomorrow, but I will share news as it comes in. I’m not the plaintiff/complainant here. This is the ICO vs SCL, the UK regulator simply upholding the Data Protection Act of 1998. Not sure if we’ll see Nix or Wheatland cross-examined.

Brexit movie premiering on UK TV now (HBO in the US later this month). Apparently, it’s a fictionalization first and foremost. #UncivilWar
Imagine casting Robert Mercer
HBO audiences in America would need an understanding of the British campaign finance law scandal that taints Brexit to spot it in this Easter Egg.

First President to engage in memetic warfare while holding a million federal employees and contractors hostage.
Trolling is Trump doctrine, leveraging Kremlin and DARPA methods.
The GoT wall meme is an intricately layered “in-group” cultural signifier. At the core it’s Trumpists vs everyone else, Us vs Them anti-immigration, those who get Game of Thrones reference vs those who don’t, those who spread meme to endorse it vs those who spread meme in dissent

And this lady - ⁦@celiakb⁩ - is just wonderful as Scout.
Saw @Jeff_Daniels on the street after the show and blurted out that I had been skeptical, but was just blown away by the production and performances. He chuckled good naturedly and said “you’rethe audience we wanted to reach.” @mockingbirdbway
And it was ironic, but not surprising that after @mockingbirdbway - an iconic play abt racism, courage & a civil rts lawyer - that cab 3H52 refused to pick me up, just moments after cab 3J66 passed by @JNelsonLDF to pick up white passengers a few feet away. @nyctaxi #NYC

Early exit polls: 75% of white evangelicals voted GOP. (Down 5-6 points from 2016)

Also: In 2016, 17% of the population were white evangelicals; in 2018, 15.3% are white evangelicals.

So, tonight's early stats show a decline of a declining group.
@jackmjenkins @mboorstein @lauriegnyt @bobsmietana @C_Stroop @JohnFugelsang @davidfrum @anamariecox
But white evangelicals—despite declining numbers — have strong participation numbers. According to PRRI, even tho they are 15% of the population, they were 26% of voters today.

THREAD: I’ve spent the last few weeks chatting with people about the upcoming #midterm elections. I’d like to share some of what I’ve heard and why this gives me so much hope.🇺🇸
I met these young women while walking my pups in my beachside community. For privacy reasons, I won’t share their real names (let’s call them “Julie” and “Amy”), but they graciously allowed me to share their stories.
One the best parts of walking my “boys” (Bowen and Bynum) is that I get to meet lots of strangers. I mean, who can resist these two?😍

Seriously, the pups break the ice, and as a consequence, I’ve met lots of interesting people.

Don't let #polls determine whether or not you vote. Don't assume a victory or a loss based on current polling. Why? Because they are inherently flawed, and not truly reflective of a whole group of people of any sort. (more)
2/ Polls have two major aspects: Sample and Methodology. These are the parameters that define how the poll is taken and how accurately it reflects a population.
3/ Let's start with sample, also called sample size. It tells you how many people are polled to get the results. Most of the big polls you see in the news have a sample size somewhere around a thousand. This works for the pollsters, because it's a manageable
