Resumo

The diffusion of pre-election studies should respect national and international standards of transparency of opinion studies. Compliance with these codes of dissemination of pre-election opinion studies guarantees readers’ access to accurate and truthful information. Based on these standards, this paper analyses the digital media dissemination of pre-election polls in the 2015 elections in Spain, subject also to a proper electoral law. The methodology used was the analysis of the published content information and the in-depth interviews with those responsible for the selected opinion studies.
