Happy Monday! Is anyone active in their firm Employee Resource Group/Network? What was your experience like after joining?

I recently joined the Black & African American ERN at my company hoping that I can connect with others andddd so far… no activity. Maybe I don’t know how to engage.

Question for anyone who might know - it appears to me Rasmussen releases a poll every week day or close to that, but day to day their margins swing three percent or more, which I think is outside the margin of error (can’t speak for every single poll). How is that kind of change possible from day to day?
