Comments on “Have surveys disrupted elections?” (Social Climate by Mahar Mangahas, 3/1/25) via https://opinion.inquirer.net:
Based on its own surveys, the answer is no. The May 2013 pre-election survey found 64 percent not aware of election survey news; of those aware, 25 percentage points said the news did not affect their probable vote. Thus, 79% are not influenced by surveys.
