DUN conducted polling over the last month for the DCC election. Both Mayor and councillor polls were conducted. Below you can see the predicted polling results and the actual results.
The polling correctly predicted Jules Radich to be elected Mayor. The polling also correctly predicted most of the successful councillors, with three significant outliers elected (Bill Acklin, Cherry Lucas and Carmen Houlahan). You can find the full polling results from 23 September on this page.
The table below places the candidates in order from most likely to be elected to least likely to be elected. For example Mandy Mayhem-Bullock was predicted to be the most likely elected as councillor. David Smith was predicted to be the least likely elected as councillor.
