Weighted average of 14 polls ending in the 30 days to October 17, 2026 (60 days when fewer than three polls are available): newer polls and larger samples count for more (weight halves every 7 days), and each firm's older polls count half, so no single pollster dominates.

04How It Works
The polls. Polls are collected from the opinion polling tables maintained on Wikipedia, which list each pollster's release with its dates, sample size and results, and checked automatically several times a day. The average weights each poll by how recent it is and by its sample size, and counts each firm's older polls at half weight. Smaller parties that only some pollsters list separately are scaled with Others so the shares add up to 100.
Seat projections are added for an election once its last-election results by district are loaded into the model.
