2025 Canadian Election Study: Voter Attitudes and Behavior

The 2025 Canadian Election Study (CES) documents the attitudes of Canadians during and after the 2025 federal election. It continues the tradition of Canadian Election Studies that began in 1965. The dataset was authored by Laura B. Stephenson and is hosted on the Harvard Dataverse platform.

Use Cases

• Modeling voter choice based on documented political attitudes.
• Analyzing shifts in public opinion during and after an election campaign.
• Studying the continuity of long-term political trends based on a survey series started in 1965.

Strengths

• Part of a long-running academic survey series with studies dating back to 1965.
• Focuses on a specific, recent political event (the 2025 Canadian election).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for large-scale modeling.
