What Is It?

The CPAC-Nanos tracking program tracks three key election indicators: ballot preference; leader viewed as best to be Prime Minister; and a daily performance composite score for each federal party leader, based on trust, vision and competence.

How Do You Get Results?

The latest poll results tracking key election indicators, including the CPAC-exclusive Leadership Index Scorecard, are posted on this page daily at 2 pm ET / 11 am PT. The detailed statistics, as well as the polling methodology by which they arrived, will be available on Nanos Research website at www.nanosresearch.com.

Nik Nanos will also appear regularly throughout the election campaign on CPAC’s flagship show, PrimeTime Politics, at 8 pm ET / 5 pm PT to discuss the findings and provide expert insight on the political landscape. 

As a new “Nik on the Numbers” weekly feature, viewers will get an all-access pass to weigh in on the results and put their questions to the pollster live on-air every Thursday at 8:20 pm ET / 5:20 pm PT. Viewers can submit their questions in advance or in real time by either calling in to PrimeTime Politics toll free, emailing their question to the show or by blogging with Nik during his on-air segment at www.nikonthenumbers.com.
