Grading our Polls in Utah

Author(s)

The Polling Team

We’re satisfied with our work in Utah, but we’re perfectionists: we’re hoping for a 4.0 GPA in 2028’s GOP primaries!

After the West Virginia primaries, we analyzed how well our polls performed, and found an average polling error of just 6.8 percentage points on the margin, a strong record for some of the most difficult polls to conduct: state legislative primary surveys with a very small set of voters and unreliable turnout.

As the campaign season continues, we’ll continue to update our track record and bring total transparency, whether we were right or wrong. Check back for updates on any states where we field surveys, and a summary of how we did. Check out the slideshow below to see our grades and overall results.
