Finally, here's how the most prolific pollsters fared in the general election.
The best-performing pollster was AtlasIntel!
Second was Trafalgar!
Yeah, they incorrectly had Trump winning a few states, but they were close on the margins, and that's the better metric.
1st AtlasIntel Public Poll for the 2024 Presidential Election reveals a 1,6pp Trump lead against Biden. In the event of a Biden dropout and his substitution by Michelle Obama, Trump appears 2,6pp behind.
AtlasIntel was the most accurate pollster of the 2020 US election.
AtlasIntel polling indicates Joe Biden's impressive South Carolina victory resulted from a last-minute surge among undecideds and a reversal of Bernie Sanders' gains with black voters following
@WhipClyburn
endorsement. All other candidates maintained their levels of support.
AtlasIntel was the most accurate pollster of the 2020 Presidential Race with an average error of 1.94 pts. [preliminary estimate for pollsters reporting at least 5 polls in the last 10 days prior to Nov. 3].
Hmmm... We didn't disappear. Since 2020, we also nailed the legislative elections in Argentina, the Colombian presidential elections and, this past Sunday, the Chilean constitutional plebiscite (see below how all other pollsters got it wrong).
We'll be back in the US very soon.
I like how that random Atlas Intel pollster just showed up in 2020, went ahead and basically nailed the 2020 General Election, and just disappeared from the face of the earth after that
Key highlights of the AtlasIntel poll. [2/4]
Biden will once again try to capitalize on the idea that Trump represents a threat to democracy. This may not be as efficient as in 2020. 48.5% of respondents believe judicial proceedings against Trump amount to political persecution.
Barack Obama is currently the most popular political figure in Georgia. Governor Brian Kemp is the least popular. Perdue and Loeffler lag further behind Ossoff and Warnock in popularity than they do in terms of vote intention.
Due to Álvaro Noboa's last-minute elimination from the race, AtlasIntel ran a separate question with an updated list of candidates. In the scenario without Noboa, the ranking changes as following:
Andrés Arauz 37.7%
Guillermo Lasso 32.0%
Yaku Pérez 9.5%
If the presidential election in Georgia took place tomorrow, Biden would win by a slightly wider margin. This is mostly driven by voters that did not vote in the actual election but that declare they would now cast a ballot.
Key highlights of the AtlasIntel poll. [1/4]
Biden is seen as more trustworthy than Trump on social and environmental matters, but not in the issues that are currently more salient in current U.S. political discourse - especially immigration.
📊🇪🇸 ATLAS POLL - SPAIN 2023
Tomorrow we will have elections in Spain. According to the public poll released by AtlasIntel on July 17th, the PP has a slight lead of 1.4 pp over the PSOE. Meanwhile, Vox and Sumar maintain 17% and 16% of the voting intentions, respectively.
AtlasIntel was the most accurate pollster of the 2024 South African General Election. The average error of the final Atlas poll was 1,28pp compared with more than 2pp for the other pollsters covering the race. Overall, this was a race with an excellent performance for all polls.
Key highlights of the AtlasIntel poll. [3/4]
In the unlikely event of a Biden dropout, Michelle Obama's selection as candidate would strengthen Democrats’ chances of winning the 2024 election.
The final Atlas poll released for the 2023 legislative election in Spain anticipated a difference of 1.4pp between the PP and PSOE.
This was the most accurate poll of the Spanish cycle if using this metric.
Key highlights of the AtlasIntel poll. [4/4]
Reinforcing the salience of immigration for this year’s election, Trump’s signature proposal of building the wall on the border with Mexico appears as one the most popular policies in AtlasIntel’s poll, with a net rating of 42pp.

📊ATLAS POLL - TURKEY 2023
We have just released our first public poll ahead of the elections in Turkey.
1st round- Current president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan (43.2%) and Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu (42.5%) are technically tied within the margin of error. Oğan and İnce combined have 10.7%.
📊ATLAS EVE POLL - TURKEY 2023
1st round
In our last poll before the elections, Kılıçdaroğlu has risen 2 pp (44.6%) while Erdoğan lost 1.3 pp (44.5%). Both are still technically tied. Oğan has gained 2.3 pp and İnce dropped from 5% to 1% after leaving the race.
AtlasIntel polling correctly anticipated that Democrats would secure both Georgia Senate seats. Final results came well within the margin of error of our two public polls.
Barack Obama is currently the most popular political figure in Georgia. Governor Brian Kemp is the least popular. Perdue and Loeffler lag further behind Ossoff and Warnock in popularity than they do in terms of vote intention.

A really rough night for polls and a disastrous night for certain pollsters such as Quinnipiac who showed Biden doing so much better.

The best-performing pollster was AtlasIntel!
Second was Trafalgar!

📊 ATLAS EVE POLL | SECOND ROUND - TURKEY 2023
Atlas' last poll before the 2nd round for the presidential election in Turkey has current president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan leading by a tight margin (48.7%) against opposition leader Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu (48.5%).
If the presidential election in Georgia took place tomorrow, Biden would win by a slightly wider margin. This is mostly driven by voters that did not vote in the actual election but that declare they would now cast a ballot.

Another day, another poll stirring hopes of Lula winning outright on Sunday. But
@atlas_intel
says his support may have peaked as some backers of third- and fourth-placed candidates worry about Lula winning in the first round.
One of the leading factors explaining Trump's poor performance among seniors is the on-going coronavirus crisis. The handling of the crisis gets particularly low marks from voters aged 65+ and has remained virtually unchanged since August.

AtlasIntel conducted the only poll on the French presidential election that revealed a difference of less than 3 percentage points between Le Pen and Mélenchon. That projection appears to have been correct.
A majority of Brazilians [54%] support impeaching president Jair Bolsonaro, according to the AtlasIntel poll just released today. Support for impeaching Bolsonaro is highly correlated with gender (higher among women), education (higher college-educated), and religiosity.
