electoral polls

Electoral polls are surveys that gauge public opinion about who might win an upcoming election. They ask a representative sample of people which candidate they support or how they feel about issues. The results help forecast potential outcomes by estimating the preferences of the entire voting population, based on this smaller group. Polls are useful for understanding trends and voter sentiment, but they are subject to margins of error and can be influenced by factors like sampling methods and respondent honesty. Overall, they serve as a snapshot of public opinion at a particular time.
