We elaborate a general workflow of weighting-based survey
inference, decomposing it into two main tasks. The first is the
estimation of population targets from one or more sources of
auxiliary information. The second is the construction of weights
that calibrate the survey sample to the population targets. We
emphasize that these tasks are predicated on models of the
measurement, sampling, and nonresponse process whose assumptions
cannot be fully tested. After describing this workflow in abstract
terms, we then describe in detail how it can be applied to the
analysis of historical and contemporary opinion polls. We also
discuss extensions of the basic workflow, particularly inference
for causal quantities and multilevel regression and
poststratification.
