tracking polls

Tracking polls are surveys conducted regularly over a period of time to measure public opinion on a specific issue or candidate. They help identify trends and shifts in attitudes by asking the same questions to a similar group of people repeatedly, such as weekly or daily. This ongoing approach provides a dynamic picture of how opinions are changing, allowing analysts to observe patterns rather than relying on a single snapshot. Tracking polls are valuable for understanding momentum in campaigns or assessing public response to ongoing events.
