First Opinion Survey

Profile America — Thursday, July 24th. With this being a presidential election year, Americans are inundated with the results of opinion polls on their latest preferences. The first such poll in our history appeared on this day in 1824 in the Harrisburg Pennsylvanian. According to those surveyed by the newspaper, Andrew Jackson was greatly favored over John Quincy Adams in the four-man presidential race. Though Jackson won the most popular and electoral college votes, he had a majority in neither, and the House of Representatives then elected Adams president. In the election of 2004, more than 122 million voters, or 55.5 percent of those eligible, went to the polls to cast presidential ballots.
