#200: Pollsters In Cars Getting Snacks

In the 200th episode of *The Pollsters*, Kristen and Margie talk about Trump’s job approval numbers, 2020 presidential predictions, the role of socialism in politics, and the first-ever Frito-Lay snack index. They also explore how the 2020 Democratic primary is shaping up.

Producers note: Margie was in a taxi and Kristen was out of the studio as well so the audio quality of this episode is well below our usual standards but we wanted to get the episode to you no matter what!
