Tories down to 80 seats in our new MRP poll
Pollsters Electoral Calculus and Find Out Now have conducted a new large-scale MRP poll for the Daily Mirror. We asked more than 18,000 GB adults how they would vote in a hypothetical General Election, while Electoral Calculus conducted Multi-level Regression and Poststratification (MRP), which is a relatively recent innovation in polling science which have been used to successfully predict the last two British general elections, to give an estimated result in each (new) Westminster constituency.
Full results, analysis and discussion can be found here on the Electoral Calculus website.
