Would it be worth having some kind of "swingometer" on this article that converts opinion poll results to the election results? AndrewRT( Talk) 22:45, 11 November 2013 (UTC)
I noticed a missing poll & added it to table. I suspect others are also missing, makes me wonder about the accuracy of the graph if it is based upon the table. 92.1.34.252 ( talk) 19:46, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
This was discussed earlier on the general election page. Recently there has been a trend towards polling individual seats, while still in its infancy, its clear that individual seat polls are only getting more common, in the run up to the Eastleigh by election last year for example their were 5 polls conducted.

Their have also been at least 7 polls conducted on behalf of UKIP donor Alan Bown (although using reputable pollster Survation)
I think that these should be added to this page, under the Northern Ireland section.
All of these polls were conducted independently of UKIP and none actually predict a UKIP 1st place. As we get closer to the general election more polls like these are likely to pop up and creating a section for them seems like the best thing to do.
Is everyone OK if I go ahead and make that new section Guyb123321 ( talk) 16:57, 11 January 2014 (UTC)
