New Brunswick, N.J. (July 1, 2019) – Rutgers pollster Ashley Koning is available to comment on Gov. Phil Murphy signing a $38.7 billion state budget Sunday, averting a government shutdown.
"A shutdown has been avoided and the budget battle has been resolved, but the Democrats’ intra-party war over the state’s financial future seems far from over,” she said.
Koning is an expert in U.S. public opinion, survey design, polling trends and mass political behavior with a focus on gender and race. She is an assistant research professor at Rutgers University’s Eagleton Institute of Politics and the director of the institute’s Center for Public Interest Polling.
