Who paid for its polls
| Sponsor | Polls | Between | Flagged party-aligned |
|---|---|---|---|
| Unite Here | 1 | May 20, 2026 | No |
§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. Its website does not say whether it works for candidates or parties, and the Wave Polling and Research site it links names no clients and makes no statement either way.1,
Of its 1 poll listed since the 2024 election, VoteHub flags 0 as paid for by a Democratic-aligned sponsor and 0 by a Republican-aligned sponsor7.
§4Its polls
| In the field | Question | Result | With | Paid for by | Sample |

| May 18–May 20, 2026 | Generic congressional ballot · 2026 | Dem 52 · Rep 41 | Verasight | Unite Here | 2,000 A |
§5What we looked for and didn't find
- No founding year, location or registration details were found for Morris Predictive Insights itself; founded is null.
- The website does not say how Morris Predictive Insights relates legally to Wave Polling and Research, LLC, which our directory lists as a separate pollster.
- The sample release, a Politico Playbook item, refused automated requests, so the poll that lists Unite Here as its sponsor was not read and was not matched to a release; the Wave and Strength In Numbers poll pages read do not name Unite Here or any other sponsor.
- No standing news partners or non-news clients were found.
- Searches found no AAPOR statement, court ruling, regulator action or retraction concerning Morris Predictive Insights or Wave Polling and Research; aggregator statements about excluding or reweighting its polls are gathered in a separate sweep and were not searched here.
