Latest 2015 polls[edit]

@Yeah 93: Is this the same as the other July poll that you placed already?--ZiaLater (talk) 04:07, 15 August 2015 (UTC)

Yes, that's the same. But this article doesn't cite the likely voters' numbers. --yeah_93 (talk) 04:37, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
@Yeah 93: Ok, thanks for checking. If you can find more polls I will try to make a graph.--ZiaLater (talk) 07:07, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
There seems to be more on the spanish version of this page. Øln (talk) 08:08, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
@Øln: I will take a look but I will have to be careful since the Venezuelan government uses fake polls occasionally.--ZiaLater (talk) 08:25, 15 August 2015 (UTC)
I took a look and most of it looks good, though some polls had to be averaged because there were more than one by an organization in one month. Thank you.--ZiaLater (talk) 09:17, 15 August 2015 (UTC)

Missing polls[edit]

Here is one from Datanalisis stating that in March according to Datanalisis, "opposition candidates have 59.6% of the voting intentions in parliamentary" while it is "22.5% for government candidates". I know there are missing polls from the Spanish article but are there more missing polls? This one wasn't shown in both articles. We can do Google searches such as "encuestas para elecciones parlamentarias venezuela" or such for each month just to get a better picture of the polls.--ZiaLater (talk) 02:13, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

Here is the Spanish article.--ZiaLater (talk) 02:19, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
I try to include every poll I find. If you find more, you could include them. --yeah_93 (talk) 05:20, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
I will try to add some from the Spanish article but there are a lot. If you could, make some corrections if needed.--ZiaLater (talk) 14:01, 29 August 2015 (UTC)
God that ICS poll... "sample of 500 per state". That's just wonderful, I'm sure you'll obtain the great results polling the same amount of people from places like Carabobo (pop. 2.4 mil) and Barinas (pop. less than 1mil). Jesus. --yeah_93 (talk) 04:06, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
ICS is kind of a joke. The government has been using their own polling organizations for awhile now. By the way, thank you for that Hinterlaces poll, I will fix that graph now.--ZiaLater (talk) 04:21, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

There is a new Hercón poll. It includes a breakdown per state, but it doesn't include the national average, so I can't include it in the chart. http://barometropolitico.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/6-Analisis-integral-Hercon-Agosto-2015-1.pdf --yeah_93 (talk) 00:55, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

@Yeah 93: Can you just average each state or would that be OR of some sort?--ZiaLater (talk) 00:35, 3 September 2015 (UTC)
No. We don't know the base for each state. --yeah_93 (talk) 01:13, 3 September 2015 (UTC)

@Yeah 93: Could you check the source I used and the data I put in? Just want to make sure were both on the same page.--ZiaLater (talk) 06:27, 16 September 2015 (UTC)

I'll take a look when I can. --yeah_93 (talk) 00:05, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
