AUGUST 23, 2024 — The UTSA Center for Public Opinion Research (CPOR) is gauging the attitudes of San Antonio voters as election season draws nearer.
The recently established center, which is housed in the university’s Department of Political Science and Geography, has an interest in learning about voter opinions on local issues such as the charter amendments that will be included on this November’s ballot and the San Antonio municipal elections in May 2025.
CPOR will conduct surveys in September and late October to assess the opinions of registered voters in Bexar County.
“Our initial poll was helpful identifying a large body of Bexar County voters and establishing a baseline understanding of their political views,” said Bryan Gervais, CPOR director and associate professor of political science. “Now that this foundation is in place, we will be able to gauge impactful changes in perception leading up to the November 2024 and May 2025 elections.”
