The busiest year of elections on record has failed to deliver profits for YouGov, as the pollster’s shares crashed today on the back of a shock profit warning.
With well over a billion voters across the globe going to the polls this year, YouGov polls and projections have been all over newspaper front pages. YouGov has published nine public polls since the general election was called less than a month ago, and is likely to see more attention in the run-up to elections in the US and France later this year.
