Description
The first Swedish exit poll survey (VALU) was carried out in connection with the elections in 1991, and it was followed by a similar survey in 1994.

In each of the regions, a university teacher was engaged as regional survey leader. The survey leaders acted as supervisors for the field agents who carried out the survey in the polling st
In VALU 1994, Sweden (constituencies) was divided into geographical regions grouped around six major university cities (Lund, Göteborg, Växjö, Stockholm, Sundsvall och Luleå). In each of the regions, a university teacher was engaged as regional survey leader. The survey leaders acted as supervisors for the field agents who carried out the survey in the polling stations and early voting stations respectively. All survey leaders had knowledge of statistical methodology. Show less..
