Institut für Demoskopie Allensbach
The Institut für Demoskopie Allensbach, or Allensbach Institute for short, was founded in 1948 and tends to belong to the conservative spectrum. Despite statistically high error rates of two to three percentage points in opinion polls, the Allensbach Institute gives values for the parties in the decimal range in its Sunday poll. In 1992 and 1996, there was public criticism of polls on the state elections in Baden-Württemberg, in which the institute deliberately set the values of the party Die Republikaner much too low.
