Voting intentions (Westminster) - all companies' polls 1992-1997

Public Sector

Voting intentions as measured by all polling companies between January 1992 and the 1997 general election

 

1992 | 1993 | 1994 | 1995 | 1996 | 1997 | 1997-2001 | 2001-2005 | 2005-2010 | Since the 2010 election

Note: This table was compiled to give context to the MORI's poll findings during the 1992-7 period, at which time several companies were experimenting with methodological differences in the conduct or reporting of their polls. Figures given here for other companies' polls between elections are those most comparable with the methodology by which MORI's polls were reported: these are NOT necessarily the figures those companies reported as their "headline" measure of voting intention. (See notes to each poll for details.) However, all figures given during election campaigns (from the point at which the election was called) are the headline figures as published by each company.
