Gallup confidence shadow series
These rows are not in the BugOut Index. No weight. The week column is the publication date. Observed is the Gallup survey date in the checklist. The value is “a great deal” plus “quite a lot.” This table is the current annual reading carried on publish weeks. It is not a Gallup historical archive and it is not the Edelman trust input.
