Methodology and source

Polling data is sourced from VoteHub and displayed under CC BY 4.0. Break'n News calculates a simple arithmetic mean of recent qualifying polls; it is not VoteHub's proprietary polling average.

Values update as new qualifying polling data is ingested. Historical snapshots are retained so changes can be compared over time.
