(99,710 posts)SurveyMonkey Was The Other Winner Of The U.K. Election
To more than one pundit, last weeks election in the United Kingdom looked like it would be the closest in a generation. But at SurveyMonkeys Palo Alto, California, headquarters, thousands of miles away, things looked very different: Respondents to an online poll conducted by the Internet survey company from April 30 to May 6 showed the Conservatives, led by Prime Minister David Cameron, as poised for an unexpectedly comprehensive electoral triumph.
For the poll, SurveyMonkey solicited responses from Britons who were taking other surveys a random sample of 75,000 other U.K. surveys that were using SurveyMonkeys platform. Eventually, 18,131 Britons told the company how they planned to vote.
This is very different from the methods of most online polling companies, including ones that polled about the U.K. election. Companies typically recruit panels of people who provide their demographic information and agree to be surveyed regularly. For each survey, the typical polling company selects a sample of panelists who roughly represent the electorate, at least demographically. SurveyMonkey didnt know anything about the people it asked to participate when it asked, other than that they were in Great Britain.3
