§1About
Drafted by AI from the public sources cited. Each sentence links to its source.
KAConsulting LLC is the business of Kellyanne Conway; her speaker biography on the Milken Institute site lists her as its president and says it provides strategic advice, data analytics and media training to corporate, political and nonprofit clients.1 The same biography says Conway founded The Polling Company, Inc./WomanTrend, which she ran from 1995 to 2017, and that she was campaign manager of Trump-Pence 2016 and later senior counselor to the president.1 A June 2025 slide deck credits KAConsulting with a telephone survey of 800 New Jersey voters fielded June 24 to 27, 2025 on behalf of Change NJ, and according to the New Jersey Globe, Change NJ, which it called a Republican super PAC aiding Jack Ciattarelli's campaign for governor, commissioned a further KAConsulting poll fielded October 15 and 16, 2025.2,

§2Who it works with

Who paid for its polls
| Sponsor | Polls | Between | Flagged party-aligned |
|---|---|---|---|
| Change New Jersey | 1 | June 27, 2025 | Republican-aligned sponsor (1) |
§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.
Doesn’t say whom it works for. The biography read says the firm serves corporate, political and nonprofit clients without naming a party, committee or campaign; the one political client named in its own material is Change NJ, which the New Jersey Globe described as a Republican super PAC, and a super PAC is not a party committee or campaign.1,
Of its 1 poll listed since the 2024 election, VoteHub flags 0 as paid for by a Democratic-aligned sponsor and 1 by a Republican-aligned sponsor5.
Federal campaigns and committees that paid it
From 2023 through 2026, 1 federal committee reported paying KAConsulting $70,883 for polling, surveys or research6,
| Committee | Kind | Party it reports | Paid for polling | Between |

§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 data10,
| Published as | Polls | Elections | Average miss | Relative to other polls | Typical size of miss | 538's last rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| KAConsulting | 11 | 2021–2022 | R+3.9 | R+0.7 | 4.0 pts | 1.5 of 3 · 1% partisan work |
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
- No website for KAConsulting was found, so it is described from a speaker biography and its poll documents rather than its own site.
- No founding year or ownership details were found beyond Conway's role as president.
- No standing news partner, co-pollster or fieldwork vendor was found; the Change NJ deck names no interviewing vendor.
- Only two Change NJ polls and one 2023 memo were found, so no standing client is recorded.
- Searches found no AAPOR statement, court ruling, regulator action, aggregator statement about excluding or reweighting its polls, or retraction by the firm; criticism of its New Jersey sample by Republican strategists, reported in news coverage, is not a finding under our rules.
