Survey studies addressing sensitive issues may lack reliability as respondents are prone to provide inaccurate responses or even to lie when they are asked about specific sensible questions. The use of indirect questions, focused on collecting data about the social network of respondents, has arisen as an alternative strategy to face up this problem, with Network scale up methods (NSUM) giving a gamut of approaches to estimate the target sensible issue. In this work we make a review of NSUM putting the focus on the study of voting intention in Spanish elections. The work is a follow-up of previous and ongoing research on Covid-19 surveys run under the project Coronasurveys (https://coronasurveys.org/).
