Stevenson Trust Scottish Election Study Roadshow
The Stevenson Scottish Election Study Roadshow brings leading political scientists Prof Ailsa Henderson (University of Edinburgh) and Prof Christopher Carman (University of Glasgow) to communities across Scotland for a series of public lectures drawing on cutting-edge evidence from the Scottish Election Study, the largest dedicated survey of voter attitudes and behaviour in Scotland. Together they will unpack how Scots engaged with the election — from the issues that drove vote choice and how campaigns shaped opinion, to what the results reveal about Scotland's constitutional future.
Whether you follow Scottish politics closely or are simply curious about the forces shaping Scotland, this is your chance to hear the data speak.
