Since more and more of you are seeing Amy on-air these days talking about our survey results, we thought it was a good time for you to get to know her a little better.

Rasmussen Reports today announced that the company’s syndicated television show “What America Thinks with Scott Rasmussen ,” which ended its nationwide television station distribution in July 2013, will re-launch later this Fall in online video format, further enriching the digital content available at www.RasmussenReports.com.
The new digital online video program, entitled “What America Thinks,” will offer insights into current events and the public-opinion surveys for which Rasmussen Reports is well known.

The Rasmussen Reports, LLC Board of Directors today confirmed that founder Scott Rasmussen left the company last month. In part, the move reflects disagreements over company business strategies.
Mike Boniello, the company's chief operating officer, will assume a broader leadership role until a replacement for Mr. Rasmussen is named.
The Company emphasized that Mr. Rasmussen's legacy remains intact. His polling methodologies and protocols, widely acknowledged as among the most accurate and reliable in the industry, continue to guide and inform the company’s public opinion survey techniques. In addition, the editorial culture of excellence that he built is still very much in place.
More than 5,600 people participated in the first Rasmussen Challenge of 2013, with an average of 2,100 people playing weekly. Our first winner for the year is Steve Arthur of Santa Fe, NM.
Since mid-January, the weekly online contest gave participants the chance to accumulate points for correctly (or almost correctly) predicting what the public response would be to specific poll questions. Unlike the initial competition in 2012 in which the leaderboard was fairly consistent each week, the 2013 challenge was a real horse race with a new person topping the leaderboard just about every week.
Scott Rasmussen's most recent book, "The People's Money," which made the New York Times bestseller list in 2011, is a call to arms for voters to be heard and an ultimatum for a grossly out-of-touch American political system. It's one of the most informed, provocative and yet hopeful books on the economic state of the union yet written, and now it's available in paperback.
Mark Meckler, president of Citizens for Self Governance and co-founder of the Tea Party Patriots, declares, "Rasmussen's latest work is his best." The influential political website RedState calls "The People's Money" "a really fascinating read."

More than 15,000 people participated in this year’s first-ever Rasmussen Challenge, with an average of 2,900 people playing weekly. And now we have a winner – Bill Kerins of Bucks County, PA.
Each week since August, the online contest gave participants the chance to accumulate points for correctly (or almost correctly) predicting what the public response would be to specific poll questions.
The competition was tight, with the top five finishers ending within 12 points of one another, but in the end Kerins emerged as the winner after dominating the leaderboard nearly every week of the competition. For his top ranking in the 2012 Rasmussen Challenge, he wins a 16G third generation iPad with WiFi, valued at approximately $500.
