KENNETH F. WARREN, Ph.D., is the president of The Warren Poll. The Warren Poll has been conducting surveys for political candidates, cities, the State of Missouri, the media, and private clients since 1980, but has specialized in community surveys since the late 1980s. The Warren Poll has been featured on KTVI-TV, The St. Louis Post-Dispatch, KMOX, KTRS, and CNN's "Inside Politics". In the last three Exit Polls conducted for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch in the 1997 Mayor's race, the 1999 two-thirds-cent sales tax in St. Louis City, and the 2001 Mayor's contest, The Warren Poll's survey results were well within the error margin, being off only .8%, 1.2%, and .4% respectively from the actual results. Kenneth Warren teaches, among other courses, public opinion polling and survey research methodology at Saint Louis University. He has also lectured at European universities on survey research. He is frequently interviewed by the local, national, and international media on public opinion polling, and is author of the popular book, In Defense of Public Opinion Polling (Westview Press, 2001; 2003 paperback).
