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

Remington Research Group is a polling and voter contact firm whose services page lists phone and text surveys, online focus groups, and live, automated and text voter contact programs.¹ Its about page says Axiom Strategies founded it in 2014 and names Titus Bond, who also oversees phone voter contact for Axiom, as president and Lexie Davis as polling director; The Missouri Times has described the firm as Missouri-based.^2,3 The about page says its statewide polls aim for at least 1,600 automated landline and 400 live cellphone interviews, weighted to voter-file turnout by geography, party, gender, age and race.²

§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.

Who paid for its polls

§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.

Works for Republican candidates or groups, by its federal filings. From 2023 through 2026, 26 federal committees reporting Republican affiliation paid it, and none reporting Democratic^7,8,9,10. Remington's own pages do not name a party. Its about page says it was founded by Axiom Strategies, whose website calls itself a Republican consulting firm that has run Republican campaigns in all 50 states, and the one campaign client Remington names, Kevin Yoder in 2016, faced an opponent its post says was backed by national Democratic groups and the DCCC. No Democratic campaign or committee is named as a client in the sources read.^2,11,12

• Kevin Yoder for Congress (2016–now). A Remington post says it provided monthly tracking and other services to Kevin Yoder for Congress in Kansas's 3rd District in 2016 and became the campaign's lead pollster that October.¹²

Of its 3 polls listed since the 2024 election, VoteHub flags 0 as paid for by a Democratic-aligned sponsor and 0 by a Republican-aligned sponsor⁶.

Federal campaigns and committees that paid it

From 2023 through 2026, 35 federal committees reported paying Remington Research Group $1,562,120 for polling, surveys or research^7,8,9,10. By the party each committee reports to the FEC: 0 Democratic, 26 Republican, and 9 none (most PACs and super PACs report none).

§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 data^13,14: 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.

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

§52026 record against the count

Why this matters: How close this pollster's last 2026 polls came to how people voted, measured the way FiveThirtyEight measured earlier elections.

One poll of one race between a Democrat and a Republican, with field periods ending in the 21 days before November 3, 2026, compared with each race's count. Some of those races are still being counted, so these figures use the unofficial count and will change until states certify.

Error is the poll's D−R margin minus the count's, as shares of all votes in the race; D+ means it showed Democrats doing better than they did. From fewer than 5 polls, so read it as a few data points, not a pattern.

§6Its polls

§7What we looked for and didn't find

• Its own pages give no headquarters; the Missouri location is as The Missouri Times reported.
• The Missouri Times reported in 2021 that Axiom founded the firm in 2015, while its about page gives 2014; this entry uses the firm's date.
• Whether Axiom Strategies still owns the firm was not stated in the sources read.
• No standing news partner and no outside fieldwork or panel vendor were found.
• The 1819 News article on its October 2026 AL-02 poll does not say who commissioned it, and its September 2026 MO-02 poll was posted on X and was not read.
• Searches found no AAPOR statement, court ruling or filing, regulator action, aggregator statement about excluding or reweighting its polls, or retraction by the firm.
• The Silver Bulletin ratings table and the VoteHub methodology pages were not read, so aggregator checks rest on searches of published text.
