Social polling

Social polling is a form of open access polling, which combines social media and opinion polling. In contrast to tradition polling the polls are formulated by the respondents themselves.[1][2][3][4] Social polling is an example of nonprobability sampling that uses self-selection rather than a statistical sampling scheme.[5]
