Polls on Westlaw

Westlaw's DIALOG database, POLL, contains a "comprehensive collection of public opinion surveys conducted in the United States by major polling firms and the news media covering the full spectrum of public interest."  Selected coverage begins in 1936; full coverage begins in 1960.  Because DIALOG has precise field restricted searching, it is important to look at both the Westlaw scope note for POLL and at the DIALOG Bluesheet, which contains more detailed information about searching the database.
