Abstract Last spring the Institute for Social Research conducted the 1997 Canadian Election Study (CES) in which 100 or more thirty-minute telephone interviews were completed on each of the 36 days of the Canadian election campaign (April 4 to June 6). Respondents were asked, among other things, for which party they expected to vote in the coming election. As an experiment, and to parallel this study, the Institute decided to mount an Internet survey asking people to answer a set of basic voting items and an abbreviated set of demographic questions.
