(4,011 posts)An article published by the University of Massachusetts at Amherst reports the results of a poll taken by YouGov (I do not know what that entity is) in early April. I do not see where that UoM article mentions polling findings regarding what Harris voters would have done differently if they had the chance to do it all over. The article does mention that the polling results indicate that two percent of Trump voters regretted voting for him.
The writer of the USA opinion piece (quoted in the OP) mentions the aforesaid University of Massachusetts at Amherst article. However, as I stated, I do not see in the UoM article any discussion regarding regret by voters who cast their ballots for Harris.
ON EDIT: The UMass poll was in cooperation with YouGov which is the entity which communicated directly with the poll participants. A total of 1,081 voters responded to the polling questions. The methodology of the posters winnowed down the number of participants used in the tabulation process to 1,000. As far as I can understand, some buffering of the raw data was implemented in order to confirm the results to a broader, albeit theoretical, demographic matrix.
