LucidTalk run regular Northern Ireland (NI) Opinion Panel 'Tracker Polls' to constantly gauge and estimate NI public opinion on a range of issues e.g. politics, business, consumer, lifestyle etc., usually on a quarterly basis. Here we present the results and report from our Poll No. 3 (of 3) – WESTMINSTER ELECTION 2024, run in association with the BELFAST TELEGRAPH. Poll questions covered Political-Party support – specifically for the Westminster elections, Who would make best Prime-Minister, and ‘What do you think the turnout will be?’. Poll-period was 24th – 25th June 2024, 3,859 responses were received, and 1,049/1,051 responses were used in the final weighted NI representative sample, producing NI Representative results to within an error of only +/-2.3%. The poll results were reported extensively in the BELFAST TELEGRAPH (29th June), and were also covered on U105 radio, and other media.
The polls are regular 'Tracker' polls of the established LT Northern Ireland Opinion Panel (now 16,000+ members). The LucidTalk Opinion Panel consists of Northern Ireland residents (age 18+) and is balanced by gender, age-group, area of residence, and community background, in order to be demographically representative of Northern Ireland. For this poll-project our NI-Wide and representative Opinion Panel was targeted to participate, and 3,859 full responses were received. Then after data auditing to ensure: (a) 'one person-one vote' responses, and (b) the collation of a robust, accurate, and balanced representative NI sample, - 1,049/1,051 responses full responses were recorded and used for the final representative NI sample. All results are accurate in terms of representing NI opinion to within an error of +/-2.3% at 95% confidence.

Methodology
Polling was carried out by Belfast based polling and market research company LucidTalk. The project was carried out online from 24th to 25th June 2024. The project targeted the established LucidTalk NI-Wide Opinion Panel (16,000+ members) which is balanced by gender, age-group, area of residence, and community background, in order to be demographically representative of Northern Ireland (NI). 3,859 full responses were considered in terms of the final results. Then a data auditing process ensured all completed poll-survey responses were genuine 'one-person, one-vote' responses, and the base data-results were weighted to 17 NI demographics, to ensure a robust NI representative sample of opinion. This produced a final 1,049/1,051 response dataset which is demographically representative sample of NI - producing results representative of NI Opinion to within an error of +/-2.3% at 95% confidence. For detail of project methodology, see enclosed reports.
