Here’s how Léger’s Presidential Election poll performed against the actual popular vote result

Léger is widely regarded as one of the most respected and accurate polling firms in Canada. Now that all of the votes have been counted in the U.S. presidential election, we wanted to test the performance of Léger’s election poll, released on Nov. 3, versus the actual popular vote.

Take a look at the results below.

	Léger Poll	Final Result
Joe Biden	52%	51.31%
Donald Trump	44%	46.86%
Jo Jorgensen	2%	1.18%
Howie Hawkins	1%	.26%
Kanye West	1%	.04%

As you can see, the Léger poll accurately predicted the popular vote results within 1% for all the candidates, except Donald Trump, where the poll’s prediction was still within the standard margin of error for a probability sample of similar size, +/- 3%.
