Why Polling?

With the legislative session and the state budget process now underway, the Badger Battleground Poll equips you with essential polling data that you can leverage in conversations with lawmakers, supporters, donors, constituents, and voters.

Too often, the challenge with polling is affordability. That’s where Platform Communications' Badger Battleground Poll comes in, which provides an opportunity to purchase individual questions that provide you with your own private dedicated polling data as part of our broader poll, at a fraction of the cost of a full poll.

No longer will you have to guess whether Wisconsin residents support or oppose your issue, or speculate on how to talk about it; you'll have the numbers to back you up. Learn more.

How it Works

  1. Identify Your Issues: Whether you aim to support legislation or oppose it, the Badger Battleground Poll is your tool to success.
  2. Craft Your Questions: Collaborate with our seasoned experts to create thoughtful and effective questions tailored to your specific needs. You can select one or more questions to delve deeper into timely topics that affect your clients.
  3. Statewide Reach: From Superior to Sussex and everywhere in between, our experienced team will gather information from voters across Wisconsin to reflect the voters’ opinions accurately.
  4. Receive Results: After we conduct the poll, you'll receive your individualized private results in your preferred format. While the poll’s public section on the political environment will be released publicly, your individual questions and data will remain private to you unless you choose to share.

Polling at a Fraction of the Cost

While fielding a full poll can be cost prohibitive, the Badger Battleground Poll allows you to ask one or multiple questions at just a fraction of the cost!

  • First Question Asked: $4,500
  • Second Question Asked: $3,500
  • Need to ask three or more questions? Let's discuss volume pricing.

Timely Results to Shape the Debate

Just in time for the state budget, we plan to field the poll during the week of April 7th, then provide clients with their private data, and release the separate public portions of the poll, the following week. If you are interested in reserving one or multiple questions, please reach out today before capacity is reached.
