We encourage comments and suggestions for enhancing the data collections from ANES surveys and for facilitating access to ANES survey data and documentation. We also welcome user questions.

Before contacting ANES with a question, however, please bear in mind that we are limited to answering questions which are specifically about the conduct of ANES surveys or about the disseminated data and documentation files which represent our surveys.

Because we often receive inquiries for which we are unable to offer assistance, you may wish to consult ANES Contact Assistance before contacting us in one of the following ways:

If you are interested in prepared output tables based on our data, rather than the case-level data which we make available for analysis, ANES does not disseminate tabular/graph output except for what is present in the online Guide to Public Opinion and Electoral Behavior.

Answers to some user questions can also be found in our list of FAQs or in other content of the ANES Help Center.

We receive many direct inquiries and make every attempt to answer them in a timely manner. However, a direct response may be delayed when we are in the process of preparing and conducting our studies.
