Test your message, your mailer, your attack, or your turnout push against the voters of any district in the country — and get a read on which way they're likely to move, and who moves, in minutes. No fielding window, no five-figure poll. The read is grounded in real Census, voter-file, and survey data, so it holds up.
Campaign intelligence and messaging optimization — not election prediction. What that means →
“Does the property-tax-relief message move these voters more than the school-funding message?”
Illustrative. Read reactions relatively — which message appears to move more, and for whom — not as a forecast.
City council, school board, county offices, judges, state legislature, ballot initiatives, advocacy campaigns. Most run blind — no professional polling, no focus groups, no modeling team. ElectorateIQ gives them a way to test messaging and understand voters that's inexpensive, iterative, conversational, and hyperlocal, at any race size.
Put a mailer, a script, or two framings in front of the exact audience you're trying to move, and see which one appears to land — before the buy.
Direct scarce dollars toward the messages and geographies where a read suggests they'll do the most — and away from the ones that fall flat.
No fielding window and no recruitment. Ask a question, iterate on the answer the same afternoon, and ask ten follow-ups.
Pick ZIPs, precincts, counties, or districts. ElectorateIQ assembles a panel for that area on demand from nationwide Census and voter-file data — nothing is pre-stored.
Likely voters, independents, suburban women, low-turnout voters, parents, retirees, an issue-specific slice — the panel re-mints to match.
Test a message, upload a speech or mailer, compare framings, simulate an attack and a response, or ask open-ended.
Estimated support levels, relative persuasion, subgroup differences, turnout effects, synthetic verbatims — then follow up conversationally.
Coherent twins, not one-off prompts. Each synthetic voter is a consistent individual — real demographics, real party and turnout, and a real respondent's attitudes held together — not a throwaway persona a chatbot improvises for a single question.

Upload speeches, mailers, social posts, and TV/radio scripts. See relative resonance, backlash risk, and subgroup differences. More →
Test opposition attacks and your defensive framings before they run. Find the counterargument that appears to hold with the voters who matter.
Explore likely enthusiasm shifts, issue-driven mobilization, and demobilization risk before committing a field program.
Compare two framings of the same policy and see which appears to lift support — and where it may cost you.
Drill any result into demographic and geographic slices — the same panel, conditioned every way you need.
Visualize issue intensity, persuasion opportunity, and turnout vulnerability across the areas you're contesting.
In a 25-question battery across 12 audiences — benchmarked against Gallup, Pew, YouGov, Marist and AP-NORC — ElectorateIQ named the leading position on 91% of questions and pointed the right direction on 87%. It's strongest on who voters are and what they prioritize. A sample of passing questions:
| Question & audience | ElectorateIQ vs. poll |
|---|---|
| Student-loan forgiveness — young voters | 64% vs. 55–65% |
| Reproductive rights salience — suburban women | 55% vs. 55–65% |
| Congestion pricing — New York City | 45% vs. 45–50% |
| Top issue is crime — Chicago | #1 · matches |

Every result runs through the twins. The platform routes each question to the right engine.
Vote, party, turnout, and standard issue positions are each twin's own donated survey answer, aggregated over the panel. No model call — accurate, per-twin, coherent, and drillable.
Reactions to something new — a message, ad, candidate, or current event — go to the Oracle: an ensemble of Simsurveys' proprietary Consumer and Social models that reads each twin's most relevant attitudes plus the stimulus and estimates the likely response.
Anyone can ask a chatbot to role-play a voter — and get a confident average that means nothing. ElectorateIQ is three proprietary layers, built on validated population data and years of methodology, that a general-purpose model can't reproduce.
A custom-built Simsurveys population model, trained on validated survey data to reproduce how real people actually respond. It carries the political reactions.
A second proprietary model trained on decades of social-attitude research. It answers the values and moral questions the political record never asked.
The conditioning layer no off-the-shelf model has: donor-matched, locality-aware twins, assembled on demand, that anchor every answer to real demographics, real party and turnout, and a real respondent's attitudes.
The two models run combined, as an ensemble — social on values, consumer on political — and base-rate standings are served straight from each twin's real donated answers. It's the models and the twins together that make the read trustworthy, and neither is something you can spin up in a weekend.
Traditional polling and modeling are built for the handful of races that can afford a six-figure research budget. ElectorateIQ is built for everyone else — smaller budgets, faster cycles, higher demand for cheap iteration.
