CRI: Ohio Polls

The CRI conducts periodic regional and statewide polls in Ohio designed to collect perception and opinion data from residents concerning political preferences, voting choices during election cycles, and quality of life measures. Statewide polls are conducted using Qualtrics webpanels of respondents stratified by age, gender, and representing the five regions of Ohio.

An annual statewide Ohio poll is designed and analyzed by BW students participating in the POL 241/441X: Public Interest Research course. Data from these polls are reported across the state and nationally by such media entities as The Plain Dealer/cleveland.com, ideastream, WKSU, WEWS News5, The Toledo Blade, The Columbus Dispatch and The Cincinnati Enquirer.
