Ontario Referendum and Election Study, 2007

The Ontario Referendum and Election Study will help researchers understand why Ontarians elect the people and parties they do, and how important such issues as funding for education and health care are to people across the province. The rolling cross-section sampling strategy of interviewing about 45 people per day will shed light on how public opinion changes over the course of the campaign. The study also looked at issues relating to elections as there was a referendum on Mixed Member Proportional Representation in this election.
