Literally two different polls with two different methods. Ipsos is actually an independent pollster, Reuters just pays them to poll. The Reuters tracking poll is done in house. No overlap.

I think they're just reporting from the same raw data, but possibly using different filters or weights.

Ipsos does one poll paid for by Reuters, and then Reuters has an in house online tracking poll they do themselves. They dont share data, Ipsos has its own methodology for collecting data thats much diffrent from the daily tracking poll. If you dont believe me check the for yourself.

Different polling teams, different methods, different revenues for the operation, etc.
