About John

John Anzalone is one of the nation’s top pollsters and messaging strategists. He has more than twenty-five years of polling experience and was most recently the chief pollster for President Joe Biden. This marks his fourth presidential campaign, after having polled for both Barack Obama (2008 & 2012) and Hillary Clinton (2016). In 2020, he helped Governor Roy Cooper win a second term in North Carolina, a state that Trump won that year. In 2018, John helped elect new governors in Michigan (Gretchen Whitmer), and Nevada (Steve Sisolak), and in 2019 he helped to re-elect Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards. During the 2018 midterms, John’s firm helped flip five GOP congressional seats as well as elect Kyrsten Sinema to the Senate in Arizona. Prior to his polling career, Anzalone was a campaign operative and was one of the first staffers in Iowa for Joe Biden for President in 1987. He also worked for Democratic strategist James Carville on U.S. Senator Frank Lautenberg’s 1988 campaign as his Political Director. He began his political career as an aide to David Wilhelm (who later became DNC Chairman) at Citizens for Tax Justice and the AFL-CIO.
