2008 Elections Project A Program of the Center for the Study of Politics and Governance
Upper Midwest Public Opinion Archive
The Elections Project has compiled the most comprehensive public opinion database on Upper Midwestern politics, policy, and elections, culled from leading regional and national polls. The Upper Midwest Public Opinion Archive will be continually updated, as well as extend further back in time as more polling data is collected. Periodically the Elections Project will also release a Poll Roundup assembling the latest results on pairings of candidates, policy issues, and other important political attitudes.
This guide is a useful tool to help interpret the data found within the Upper Midwest Public Opinion Archive. It provides an outline of the differences in modern polling techniques as well as methodological concerns about new survey methods like automated and Internet surveys.
