Harris Interactive and Toluna experts will first provide estimates of their weekly polling for the first and second rounds of the Presidential election, held Sunday, April 10, 2022, and Sunday, April 24, 2022.
The coverage will be live on M6 and RTL and will also be shared on Toluna and Harris Interactive social media networks from 12:00 PM CEST each election day and continuing throughout the day. The timeline will be as follows:
- 12:00 PM: Initial analysis of voter turnout
- 5:00 PM: Estimates of voter turnout
- 8:00 PM: Initial estimate of Presidential election results
- 8:30 PM onwards: Exclusive insights from “Voting Day” survey fielded by Harris Interactive and Toluna to understand voter motivations and abstentions
- Later in the evening: Refined results in real time
Following the Presidential election, Harris Interactive and Toluna will again work with M6 and RTL to deliver weekly polling for the French Legislative elections on June 12, 2022 and June 19, 2022, providing exclusive analysis and estimations of the French National Assembly’s composition.
