WebRoots Democracy has commissioned three YouGov polls related to online voting. The first two found majority support for online voting to be implemented as an option in the 2016 London Mayoral Election and the 2016 EU Referendum. The two leading candidates for London Mayor, Sadiq Khan and Zac Goldsmith, subsequently backed the campaign for online voting. Sadiq Khan had previously written about his support for online voting in a blogpost on the WebRoots Democracy website saying it was "time to drag our democracy into the 21st century."
