The Tarrance Group Joins Giuliani Presidential Exploratory Committee Team
Rudy 2008 Campaign ^ | 1 February 2007 | Press Spokesman

New York, Feb 1 -

The Rudy Giuliani Presidential Exploratory Committee announced today that Ed Goeas, Dave Sackett and Brian Tringali from The Tarrance Group, a prominent research and strategic consulting firm, are joining the committee as its pollsters.

Goeas and partners Sackett and Tringali currently also serve as pollster to five Republican Governors, ten U.S. Senators, and forty-two Republican Members of Congress.


“We’re thrilled The Tarrance Group has come on board and will lead our polling efforts. Ed Goeas, Dave Sackett and Brian Tringali are truly superior in their field, have stellar reputations and make an outstanding addition to our team,” said Brent Seaborn, Strategy Director to the Exploratory Committee.


Ed Goeas said, “Following an election where the question on many voters’ mind was ‘can Republicans govern,’ I am excited about working with a man that has such a strong record of conservative governance and leadership with results.”


Ed Goeas is President and CEO of The Tarrance Group. He is perhaps best known as the Republican pollster for the “Battleground Poll,” which, of the national public polls, has come the closest in three of the last four presidential elections in matching the actual election results. He has been widely published in professional and academic journals, including the Yale Law and Policy Review, on a variety of public policy issues based on his national research. In 1994, he was recognized by Democrat and Republican members of the American Association of Political Consultants as "Pollster of the Year.”


Dave Sackett has an extensive background in campaign strategy, political media and message development, and demographic targeting. He currently serves as the pollster and strategic consultant for over fifty Republican Governors, U.S. Senators, Members of Congress, and State leaders, and served as member of the Bush-Cheney ’04 polling team.


Brian Tringali has been a senior advisor to many successful statewide and congressional Republican campaigns throughout the country. During the 2004 presidential campaign, he conducted tracking in key Midwest states including Minnesota, Michigan and Ohio.

Yes.

I am able to see past my own bedroom and look to the future of the country.

I have met Rudy.

I have seen him speak in person 3 times.

I am totally blow away by the man's persona.

I believe we have in Rudy a man of incredible leadership.

What can I tell you? - I am a Rudy man.

I like Guiliani/Keating myself! I want charisma on both parts of the ticket.

NOTE TO ALL: This person is an Independent as he left the Republican Party!

Voting for 3rd party should not hard to do since you are not a Republican to start with!

No, Haley isn't running....for anything; sadly.

I really, really like Haley, have done, for decades.

I just got on the Hunter site.

Peace through Strength was the SAC motto for as long as I can remember-- General Curtis LeMay used the words "Peace through Strength" in the documentary on his life when he was being nominated to become Chairman of the Joint Chiefs.

Hunter has good conservative credentials but no record of achievement and, having watched him on C-Span yesterday, he seems awfully dull to gain national attention.

I feel rather sorry for his die-hard supporters.

I do too! I don't think they understand what it takes to win in a race nationwide and how much time, energy, and money is involved. It also takes charisma to get elected in a 50-state campaign IMHO! Dull speakers won't make it and I have heard him speak in person. Nice guy but not dynamic for being in the House for 30 years.
