Public Policy and Opinion Polls
It is difficult to assess the independent effect of public opinions on shaping public policy. Public policy often differs from national opinion polls, and the Constitution contains no provision for national referenda on policy issues.

Public policy is more likely to conform to elite opinion than to mass opinion.
