Before reading a chart

A poll is a snapshot.

Polls measure reported preferences during a particular fieldwork period. A trend summarises those observations; it is not an election forecast.

Check the dates, sample size, original source and coverage notes before comparing results. Some archives cover past elections rather than the current cycle.
