Conducting Public Opinion Research, from Idea to Results


Election polling presents unique challenges that demand an experienced team. Abt Associates has more than 30 years of experience conducing critical election and public opinion surveys (much of this as Abt-SRBI, an Abt Associates’ subsidiary fully integrated into the company in 2016).

We have a proven track record in working with clients to produce accurate election estimates. We have conducted election polling for: The Washington Post, ABC News, American National Election Survey (ANES), The Public Policy Institute of California, and The University of Massachusetts Lowell. We routinely conduct national, state, and local-area election and public opinion surveys for these and other academic and media clients. Our operational and methodological experience includes four fully supervised and monitored U.S.-based telephone interviewing facilities.

In addition, our survey methodologists and project management staff are experienced in questionnaire development, sample design, voter modeling, demographic weighting, analysis, and reporting.

Abt is part of the American Association for Public Opinion Research’s (AAPOR) Transparency Initiative to provide greater clarity and visibility into our polling methods.
