Day 4 - 2/20

 

This morning we heard from Professor Scott Huffman who runs the Winthrop poll. His presentation was very interesting and he taught us about priming, framing, and word choice and how all of these can affect a respondent's opinion. 
After, we headed straight to Greenville, SC to get in line for Trump's Town Hall with Fox 
News and Laura Ingraham. This event was so cool, and much bigger than the one we watched fro Nikki Haley. It was extremely exciting to see Former President Donald Trump as well as his secret service detail. I have never been in the same room with someone so famous before so this was a great opportunity for me, even though we didn't get to meet him.

Day 1 - 2/17

  My first day campaigning for Trump in SC was super exciting! We got to learn about and participate in phone banking and canvassing. At the end of the day, we got to meet with former White House Deputy Press Secretary Hogan Gidley. He was so insightful and gave us an opportunity to ask any questions! Made it on the leaderboard for phonebanking in the Trump office!

Day 5 - 2/21

  Unfortunately, I got sick on Wednesday and spent my morning in the urgent care. Luckily, my classmates were able to share their experiences with me. Team Trump got to see Laura Trump in person at their office in Charleston.  The Students working fro the SCDP had the really cool opportunity to see Vivek Ramaswamy at a brewery. While i'm sad I had to miss out, I am lucky that I caught my illness early and will be ready to go tomorrow!

Professor Redlawsk, Why Iowa?

The next few classes we were tasked with reading Redlawsk's book  Why Iowa?,   and evaluating his analysis of the importance of the Iowa caucus through a 4-5 page paper. I found this interesting because when we were reading this book and making our case, the Iowa Caucus was occurring in real time!
