Chances are, you’ve seen or reported on something from Pew Research Center. Here are three resources they have that can help you and your newsroom ahead of the upcoming election:

• Survey data: Pew Research Center’s American News Pathways project, an initiative focused on Americans’ news habits and attitudes, allows journalists to create tables of answers to survey questions, from vote-by-mail to news about the presidential candidates.
• The latest poll: As of Oct. 5, Biden leads Trump overall, and he also holds an advantage on most issues, including law enforcement and COVID-19. You can find all of Pew Research Center’s election content here.
• Research 101: Pew Research Center’s Methods 101 video series breaks down important topics in polling/research, including random sampling, international polling and nonprobability surveys.
