Field Poll Surveys


The Field Poll has operated continuously since 1947 as an independent, non-partisan, media-sponsored survey of California public opinion, and one of the nation's oldest and most respected state polls. Over this period, The Field Poll has conducted over 300 large-scale statewide surveys and issued about 2,500 different reports tracking voter preferences in major statewide candidate and proposition elections, assessing public opinion about elected officials and major state issues, obtaining public reaction to major political and social events, and covering other topical stories of general public interest.Visit The Field Poll's report archives here.

The Field Poll is owned and operated by Field Research Corporation, one of the West Coast's oldest and largest marketing and public opinion research organizations. The firm conducts local, regional and national opinion research projects in the public and private sectors. Field Research specializes in full-service research, typically executing all project phases from initial conceptualization and design through data analysis and reporting.

One of the unique services that Field Research Corporation offers is the ability for state agencies, non-profit organizations and others to add individual policy-related questions onto its ongoing, large-scale statewide surveys of the California voting public. By adding questions onto these ongoing surveys, organizations interested in policy research can obtain valuable statewide opinion research results for a fraction of what it would cost to conduct a similar ad hoc survey.
