Election and voting research
We understand how people form a decision in direct democratic decisions and how referendums and elections are decided.
Trend analyses
On behalf of the Swiss Broadcasting Corporation (SRG / SRR) we conduct two surveys in each case among a representatively selected cross-section of the Swiss voting population. The results are published by the SRG / SRR as SRG-Trendumfrage (SRG trend survey).
Election analyses
In election analyses, we support parties and candidates in the election campaign with our expertise and experience. For this we use our gfs.bern election model, which is focused on campaigning.
Follow-up surveys
On behalf of Switzerland’s Federal Chancellery, we have studied all voting decisions at national level since 1977. Follow-up surveys after each federal referendum form the basis of this analysis and help to understand the motives of voters in voting Yes or No at the ballot box.
