Election campaign guides

For each election studied by DiCED, a campaign guide is made available. This campaign guide is a reference which can be used when studying these elections, after the fact. The campaign guides contain information about public opinion on Twitter during the campaign, poll results, and timelines of events which occurred during the campaign. These guides are made available upon request. Please send your request to receive one of our campaign guides to DiCED@manchester.ac.uk.

On this page, we have included links to the table of contents of these guides to give an impression of what they contain and whether they could serve as a useful resource to your research.
