Adam Geller is the CEO of the highly regarded polling firm, National Research Inc.

Way Back When
Adam received his B.A. in political science from Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, in 1988 and his M.A. in political science from the University of Delaware in 1993.

Adam’s professional career in politics began in 1993 in Washington DC, where he served as a Project Director at Fabrizio, McLaughlin and Associates. One of Adam’s first major victories there was George Allen’s victory over Mary Sue Terry in the 1993 Virginia Gubernatorial campaign. Adam continued to poll for dozens of campaigns that ultimately resulted in huge Republican congressional gains in the 1994 cycle.

Adam went on to serve as a Project Director for Public Opinion Strategies, where he managed and analyzed hundreds of surveys and focus groups throughout the United States, including Tom Campbell’s 1995 special congressional victory in California’s Central Valley, and Bob Dole’s 1996 Presidential Primary campaign.

Managing to escape the Beltway in 1997, Adam joined Jamestown Associates, a political media consulting firm, as their Vice President. While there, he directed mail and media campaigns for dozens of successful Republican clients, including those of Congressman Vito Fossella (NY), Congresswoman Nancy Johnson (CT), Congressman Jim Kolbe (AZ), Congressman Mike Ferguson (NJ), Congressman Jim Saxton (NJ), and Congressman Connie Mack (FL).

Adam has been heavily involved in polling for the Club for Growth, one of the most successful and visible 527 groups over the past several cycles. Other clients include U.S. Senator John Barrasso (WY), the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), Congressman Christopher Shays (CT), Congressman Tim Walberg (MI), Congressman Walter Jones (NC), Congressman Bill Sali (ID), and Legislative caucuses in New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania and Arizona.
