I (in NC) randomly get texts with poll links and make sure to participate.

Are they only sent to swing states? Is that why I never see any?

Pretty much. Why bother polling California or Alabama? Waste of money.

Edit: and I really just mean this in the context of the presidential race. State parties and candidates likely poll for their own district or informational purposes, but the extent and intensity will differ dramatically.
