TEXAS LYCEUM POLL

To better understand public opinion, The Texas Lyceum commissions an annual survey on the critical policy issues facing Texans. The mission of the Lyceum Poll is straightforward: Produce a professional, nonpartisan, high-quality, scientific survey that provides the public with:

• Specific data points on issues of interest
• A time series of key demographics, attitudes, and opinions

The trademark of the Lyceum Poll is its transparency. All top-line and detailed cross-tabular results for each poll are published on the Lyceum website.

The 2021 Lyceum Poll

The 15th Annual Texas Lyceum Poll, conducted from January 8-January 17, 2021, is devoted to the topic of the statewide impact of the coronavirus pandemic. Our goal is to enlighten the public and policymakers on Texans' opinions on a number of public policy issues and the global pandemic’s effect on the state.
