Cardinals Win Game In-depth football coverage, pages 12-13 VOL. 110, NO. 2 August 2009 L GOS www.uiw.edu/logos Cardinals win game By Annette Marroquin LOGOS STAFF WRITER More than 6,000 people in and outside Benson Stadium watched the University of the Incarnate Word win its first-ever football game Saturday, Aug. 29, beating Monterrey Tech 42-39. While the Cardinals battled on the field, the cheerleaders, dance team and UIW’s new band did their best to keep the fans pumped up. The overflow of people was astonishing and unexpected. The stands were crowded with people and more stood along the outside fence looking in. The announcer had to ask people to move out of the aisles because of safety regulations. “Who knew there was going to be this much people here,” senior Raul Benavides said.

  • BIDEN HOLDS COMMANDING LEAD in ILLINOIS on EVE of SECOND DEBATE Biden Leads Nearest Competitor Sanders by More Than 2-1 Margin in Illinois
    BIDEN HOLDS COMMANDING LEAD IN ILLINOIS ON EVE OF SECOND DEBATE Biden Leads Nearest Competitor Sanders By More Than 2-1 Margin in Illinois July 30, 2019 For more information For immediate release Contact 312-388-1782 Former Vice President Joe Biden holds a commanding lead in Illinois heading into the second presidential debate, according to a new poll. Biden has 36.1% of the vote, with Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders in second place with 15.2%. Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren is in third place with 12.8%, while South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg (9.3%), and California Senator Kamala Harris (8.6%) round out the top tier of candidates. The poll, conducted between July 26th-29th, of 1200 Democratic primary voters across Illinois, is part of The Illinois Poll, a semi monthly survey by Victory Research, an independent polling company based in Chicago. The poll has a margin of error of 2.83% and was conducted by live callers. Respondents answered on land lines (502) and cell phones (698). Victory Research has no client in the Presidential campaign. Victory Research was the most accurate Illinois polling company for the 2018 gubernatorial election. The final Illinois poll of the 2018 Illinois Governor election published the day before the election showed Governor Prizker’s lead over former Governor Rauner at 16%. The actual margin of victory was 15.7%. Biden’s lead is built on a very strong showing among African-American voters. More than half of African- American voters (54.2%) choose President Obama’s running mate as their first choice for President, according to the poll.

  • Indivisible Debate Watch Guide Winning with Our Values We Can Win in 2020
    INDIVISIBLE DEBATE WATCH GUIDE WINNING WITH OUR VALUES WE CAN WIN IN 2020 Before we dive into the details of the crowded 2020 field, and what issues we think are most important to keep in mind as we evaluate that field, we wanted to be explicit: we can win in 2020. The 2016 election cycle was difficult and damaging in many ways, but one of the most lasting challenges is that it left so many of us scared. In 2018, we elected the most diverse Congress in our country’s history, made up of members who’ve sponsored bills like the Green New Deal and the sweeping democracy reforms in HR 1. But, as we look ahead to 2020, so many of us are still hung up on “electability.” Too often, we’re being guided by our fears, not our hopes, about the future of our country. As we head into 2020, we have a historically strong and diverse Democratic field. We have candidates who are unafraid to take bold positions on unrigging our democracy, creating a people-first immigration policy, and leaning into ambitious plans to address climate change. And we have candidates from a wide range of backgrounds: current US Senators, mayors of large and small cities, and two former members of the Obama administration. For the first time in our country’s history, we have a field that includes Latino, Black, white and AAPI candidates; gay and straight candidates; and working class candidates who are rejecting corporate PAC money. We know the stakes are high. But we think concerns about “electability” are a self-fulfilling prophecy.

The names were presented in random order. Respondents were then asked to select a candidate for whom they would vote. “Now I’m now going to read a list of people that have announced that they are running for the Democratic Presidential nomination, or have indicated that they are strongly considering it. After each name, I would like you to tell me if you have a favorable impression, unfavorable impression, or no opinion of that person. If you have never heard of them, please let me know.” “If the presidential primary election were held today, which candidate would you vote for?” New Hampshire Institute of Politics Executive Director Neil Levesque summarized the results, saying, “Joe Biden continues to show strength in New Hampshire, as 23% of Democratic Primary voters surveyed indicated that if the NH Primary were held today, they would vote for Biden, followed by 16% for Bernie Sanders, 11% for Pete Buttigieg and 9% for Elizabeth Warren.

    1 Braxton Way Suite 125 Glen Mills, PA 19342 484-840-4300 www.ssrs.com OVERVIEW The study was conducted for CNN via telephone by SSRS, an independent research company. Interviews were conducted from December 4, 2019 to December 8, 2019 among a sample of 1,205 respondents who live in Texas. The landline total respondents were 421 and there were 784 cell phone respondents. The margin of sampling error for total respondents is +/-3.4 at the 95% confidence level. The design effect is 1.46. For results among the 327 respondents who are likely to vote in the Democratic primary the margin of sampling error is +/-6.6 and for results among the 537 respondents who are likely to vote in the Republican primary it is +/-5.0. More information about SSRS can be obtained by visiting www.ssrs.com. Question text noted in parentheses was rotated or randomized. Values less than 0.5 percent are indicated by an asterisk (*). NOTE ABOUT CROSSTABS Interviews were conducted among a representative sample of the adult population, age 18 or older, of Texas. Members of demographic groups not shown in the published crosstabs are represented in the results for each question in the poll. Crosstabs on the pages that follow only include results for subgroups with a minimum n=125 unweighted cases. Results for subgroups with fewer than n=125 unweighted cases are not displayed and instead are denoted with "SN" because samples of that size carry larger margins of sampling error and can be too small to be projectable with confidence to their true values in the population.

The former vice president leads the pack and holds the best favorability rating in a field of two dozen presidential contenders, according to the first Monmouth University Poll of Iowa Democratic voters in the 2020 cycle. Other candidates also have strong favorability ratios that could help them crack the top tier once they become better known to caucusgoers. Health care and environmental concerns are the top issues for Iowa Democrats in deciding who to support for their party’s presidential nomination, but beating President Donald Trump is also a very important consideration. In a field of 24 announced and potential candidates, Biden holds the lead with 27% support among Democratic voters who are likely to attend the Iowa caucuses in February. He is followed by Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders (16%), South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg (9%), Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren (7%), California Sen. Kamala Harris (7%), former Texas Rep.

Abby Disney: Oh, so much better. ​ Julian Castro: Okay. ​ ​ Abby Disney: I’m Abigail Disney, welcome to All Ears, my Podcast where I get to go ​ deep with some super smart people. This season I’m talking to good trouble makers. Artists,activists, politicians and others who aren’t afraid to shake up the status quo. We’ll talk about their work, how they came to do what they do, and why it’s so important in hard times to think big. You can’t think about solutions without being a little optimistic, and man oh man I think we need some optimism right now. A lot of big questions need answering these days. Like, do norms matter anymore after the last four years of norm shattering on the part of our president? What’s a Democrat? What’s a Republican? And will we ever be able to work together again? So, all of this is to say its a good time to talk about where we are, what just happened, and where we might go from here. And today, I think we have just the guy who can help us talk about all of these things.
