  • Monmouth University Poll ARIZONA: DEMS AHEAD for PREZ, SENATE
    Please attribute this information to: Monmouth University Poll West Long Branch, NJ 07764 www.monmouth.edu/polling Follow on Twitter: @MonmouthPoll _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Released: Contact: Thursday, September 17, 2020 PATRICK MURRAY 732-979-6769 (cell); 732-263-5858 (office) [email protected] Follow on Twitter: @PollsterPatrick ARIZONA: DEMS AHEAD FOR PREZ, SENATE Support for legalizing marijuana has the edge West Long Branch, NJ – Joe Biden leads Donald Trump among registered voters in Arizona, but the margin narrows under different turnout models. The Monmouth (“Mon-muth”) University Poll finds the Democrat with a large advantage among Latino voters and a small edge in all-important Maricopa County. In the race for U.S. Senate, Democrat Mark Kelly maintains his lead over incumbent Martha McSally. The poll also finds widespread voter support for a ballot measure to impose an income tax surcharge on high-earners and nominally more support than opposition for a proposition to legalize marijuana, although the latter vote could be close depending on turnout. Among all registered voters in Arizona, the race for president stands at 48% for Biden and 44% for Trump. The contest stood at a similar 46% to 43% in a poll taken shortly before the state’s presidential primary in March. Another 4% currently support Jo Jorgensen and 3% are undecided. Voter intent includes 42% who say they are certain to vote for Biden (versus 45% who say they are not at all likely to support the Democrat) and 38% who are certain to support Trump (versus 48% who are not at all likely). Under a likely voter scenario with a somewhat higher level of turnout than in 2016, the race narrows to 48% for Biden and 46% for Trump.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.

I know we have you out early. As you saw this morning, we’ve announced our intent to unite WarnerMedia and Discovery to bring together their complementary strengths to create a new company with a solidified position in global direct to consumer. We’re excited about this opportunity for what it creates for WarnerMedia and Discovery and what it also does for AT&T, our customers, employees and our shareholders. David and I want to spend the most of our time today answering your questions. Before we start, I’ll take, make a few brief comments about why we’re doing this, why we’re doing this now. Let me start by saying the Warner media team has done a phenomenal job and coming together over the past couple of years. Today’s deal is possible only because of what they’ve achieved together. Second, it’s important to keep in mind we’ve also already demonstrated healthy returns on our investment in WarnerMedia including the cash generated from the business since it was acquired.

  • Mayor Attends Arizona-Mexico Commission's 60Th Anniversary Summit
    Mayor Attends Arizona-Mexico Commission's 60th Anniversary Summit During the last week of June, I attended the Arizona Mexico Commission's 60th Anniversary Summit. Arizona and Sonora have made history over the past 60 years as neighbors, partners and friends. The Arizona-Mexico Commission (AMC), founded in 1959, celebrated its 60th anniversary at its 2019 Summit in Phoenix. Throughout the past sixty years, the Commission has focused on strengthening the relationship between Arizona and Mexico. Together, we continue to define our future. While attending, various conversations were held regarding: Agribusiness and Wildlife, Arts and Culture, Community and Social Organizations, Education, Emergency Management, Real Estate, Tourism, Economic Development, Energy, Environment and Water, Financial and Legal Services, Health Services, Mining, Security, Transportation, Infrastructure, and Ports. The forums I attended were informative and on-point. On Wednesday, I attended the Transportation Electrification Forum focusing upon the electric grid and the economic impact of transportation innovation and electric vehicle adoption. On Thursday, attendees heard from keynote speakers regarding North American and global leadership and 21st century healthcare (specifically, as it relates to genomic medicine). There was also an important panel discussion on border infrastructure. Friday started with a fireside chat with three members of the United States House of Representatives (Rep. Debbie Lesko, Rep. David Schweikert, and Rep. Greg Stanton). This was followed by a panel discussion focusing upon markets of opportunity. Next, I participated in a small group meeting with Governors Doug Ducey (Arizona) and Claudia Pavlovich (Sonora, Mexico).
