RasmussenReports.com is the most visited public opinion website in the country. Polls by Rasmussen Reports are cited regularly by most major news sources including newspapers, radio, Internet and television. Scott Rasmussen, founder and president of Rasmussen Reports, has appeared on a number of news broadcasts, including the Fox, BBC, CNN, NPR, and CNBC.

No other public opinion firm operates like this, making Rasmussen Reports the “first source” for public information for many U.S. policymakers and decision leaders.
“We appreciate Boxwood assisting us in finding the right partner,” said Scott Rasmussen, “and look forward to working with Ted Carroll and Earl Macomber as our company enters a new phase of its growth.”
Ted Carroll of Noson Lawen Partners said, “We admire the rock solid credibility and market-leading accuracy of the Rasmussen Reports product suite, and we are going to be actively engaged with Scott and his team as they expand it.
