There is regular polling of the membership from proper pollsters as well as
Conservative Home. The bookies are probably getting it from places like that.
There are people - well, journalists - whose job it is to be deeply ingrained with the membership of the main parties precisely because of how it filters through to the country so we usually have an imperfect but decent understanding of it.
