Hart Research Associates is one of the leading public opinion research firms in the United States. Founded in 1971, our firm has conducted well over 8,000 public opinion surveys, administered and analyzed interviews among more than three million individuals, and conducted over 7,500 focus groups. Since 1989, a highlight of Hart Research’s work has been our participation in regular public opinion polling for NBC News and the Wall Street Journal, a survey that is widely regarded as one of the key barometers of American public opinion. Our firm has become well known for its achievements in helping a diverse range of interests and membership organizations refine their approach to communications and outreach with targeted high-level populations, from Congressional Members and Hill staffers to officials within the administration. Over the course of four decades, Hart Research has built a reputation for conducting our projects with rigor, flexibility, and excellence. Our goal for every project is not just to give clients interesting results, but also to provide succinct, strategic, and actionable recommendations that clients can look to for years to come.
