Presidential elections are a subject of immediate concern to historians and also to social scientists—particularly students of opinion research. Furthermore, public opinion research can assist in solving some of the problems of his'orians relative to elections by providing techniques for establishing trends in political opinions, evaluating the effects of specific leaders and communications on voting, and determining the importance of campaign issues. Closer cooperation between the two disciplines can result in more meaningful history
