§1About

Drafted by AI from the public sources cited. Each sentence links to its source.

The polls listed under this name were published on the website of the Angus Reid Institute, which its about page describes as a national not-for-profit foundation and registered Canadian charity founded in October 2014 by pollster and sociologist Angus Reid.1,2 An April 2026 release on that site says the Institute surveyed members of Angus Reid Forum USA online and that the survey was self-commissioned and paid for by Angus Reid USA.2 The Institute's team page names Shachi Kurl as president and Angus Reid as founder and chairman.3 According to Daily Research News Online, Angus Reid opened a Washington, D.C. public affairs research company named Angus Reid Global in October 2026, with Reid as chief executive and Natalie Lacey and Paul Abbate as executive vice presidents, and the outlet says an earlier company of the same name was set up in 2019.4

§2Who it works with

Why this matters: Owners, news partners and the firms behind a poll's interviews shape what gets asked, how, and what gets published.

§3Whom it works for

Why this matters: A firm that also works for one party's campaigns can still publish accurate polls, but readers deserve to know.

Says it does no work for parties or candidates. The Angus Reid Institute's about page says its polling is strictly non-partisan and that the Institute and its staff may not take part in campaign activity for or against any candidate. This rests on the Institute's own description; no statement from the Washington company named Angus Reid Global was read.1

Of its 5 polls listed since the 2024 election, VoteHub flags 0 as paid for by a Democratic-aligned sponsor and 0 by a Republican-aligned sponsor7.

§4Record against results

Why this matters: The one test that doesn't depend on other polls: how close a firm's final polls came to what voters did.

From FiveThirtyEight's final public data8,9: general-election polls between a Democrat and a Republican in the last three weeks before each election, compared with the certified result. FiveThirtyEight rated each name polls were published under separately. Across all 8,957 such polls, the average miss was D+0.7, so the relative figure takes out the misses every pollster shared that year.

Error is the poll's D−R margin minus the result's; D+ means it showed Democrats doing better than they did.

ABC News closed FiveThirtyEight in March 2025; its data stops at the 2022 elections. 2026 results will be added once states certify them.

§6What we looked for and didn't find

  • The pages read do not say how the Angus Reid Institute, Angus Reid USA, which paid for the April 2026 survey, and the Washington company named Angus Reid Global relate to one another, so kind and founding year are left empty for a reviewer to settle.
  • The angusreidglobal.com website returned a server error (HTTP 522) on two tries, so the company's own description was not read.
  • No standing news partner or non-news client was found for its US polling.
  • One search for AAPOR statements, complaints, retractions and withdrawn polls found none; a legal letter the Institute sent to a Canadian politician over his comments on its poll is listed under pointers because it is not a court filing. Aggregator pages were not searched one by one.
