Poll Bludger is a website that focuses on opinion poll analysis and Australian politics. The outlet Crikey has labelled it "one of the most heavily trafficked forums for online discussion of Australian politics".[1] This claim, from 2007 has never since been verified.
The blog received thousands of daily views leading up to the 2007 Australian federal election, along with other polling-related blogs.[2] William Bowe has not provided any updates on website traffic since.
The website also hosts Bludger Track, a "bias-adjusted poll aggregate".[3]
The creator of Poll Bludger, William Bowe, has been involved in electoral analysis with news organisations such as Crikey, The Conversation, and ABC Radio.[1][4][5]
William Bowe also conducts paid consultancy work for Climate 200, a group affiliated with the Teal independents, as cited on his Poll Bludger blog.[6]
