Australian electorate survey research

MRP (multi level modeling and post stratification) is a sophisticated electoral research model pioneered by YouGov. It combines survey data with electorate level information such as population density, education levels, and past election results to provide deeper insights. More than just a poll, MRP applies data science to predict outcomes with high accuracy.

The overall approach to MRP by YouGov has been used to successfully predict elections including both the 2023 Spanish election and the 2024 UK election.

For Australia’s 2025 Federal Election, you can use this advanced model to:

• Map how your issue resonates across 150 electorates
• Poll an individual electorate with precision

Send your questions via YouGov survey and our expert researchers will model results to it on the differing impact or level of support within every electorate, providing you with powerful insights for advocacy and campaign planning.

With your MRP result you will receive:

• Visualisation of the results in map format
• Executive summary and analysis of results by seat profile
• Wide range of profiling demographics

Individual seat polls
YouGov also provides an online seat poll that is modelled though our MRP to give greater accuracy at an affordable price.

For each seat poll you can access:

• Primary and 2pp voting intention
• 2 local survey questions
