MRP pollsThe Conversation
•86% Informative
Chart below shows average performance of 27 polls which predicted vote shares in the contest just prior to the election on July 4 .
Pollsters over-predicted Labour and arguably under-prediction the Tory vote.
The YouGov MRP had a score of eight compared with 11 for its regular poll.
However, the reverse was true for the More in Common poll, which scored eight .
We can find out from the census if the quotas of young people or ethnic minorities are correct, but it will not tell us if respondents are more interested and less alienated from politics than non-respondents. The implication is that the eve of election polls contained this type of non-response and so exaggerated Labour and Reform party support. It was very likely caused by non-respondents being more apathetic or more alienated from politics than respondents..
