DATA COLLECTION DESCRIPTION Voter News Service Voter News Service General Election Exit Polls, 2000 (ICPSR 3527) SUMMARY: These data were collected through interviews conducted with voters in 50 states and the District of Columbia, as they left their polling places on election day, November 7, 2000. Part 1, National Data, contains data collected from a national sample. National sample respondents were asked a series of questions about their electoral choices, the issues surrounding the elections, and the factors that influenced their decisions. Questions focused on the direction of the country, the state and future of the nation's economy, the federal budget surplus, the investment of Social Security funds in the stock market, tax cuts, prescription drug coverage for the elderly, and the legacy of the Clinton presidency. Background information on national respondents includes age, race, gender, Hispanic descent, age of children in household, marital status, political party, political orientation, employment status, education, religion, and family income. Parts 2-52 contain data collected from the individual state and District of Columbia surveys. Telephone surveys were conducted in Oregon, as well as with absentee/early voters in California and Washington. Respondents were asked for their opinions of President Bill Clinton and the United States Congress, as well as for their vote choices in the relevant gubernatorial, senatorial, and congressional elections. Those queried were also asked whether they supported state-specific proposals, such as a state lottery in South Carolina, a state income tax in New Hampshire, and school vouchers in California and Michigan. Background information on individual state respondents includes age, race, gender, education, voter participation history, political party, political orientation, and family income. UNIVERSE: Voters casting a ballot in the 2000 United States general election. SAMPLING: The statewide samples were selected in two stages. First, a probability sample of voting precincts within each state was selected that represented the different geographic areas across the state and the vote by party. Second, within each precinct, voters were sampled systematically throughout the voting day at a rate that gave all voters in a precinct the same chance of being interviewed. The national sample is a subsample of the statewide sample precincts.

NOTE: (1) A weight variable, with three implied decimal places, should be applied in all analyses. Further information on weighting may be found within the methodology section of the codebook. (2) This collection has not been processed by ICPSR staff. ICPSR is distributing the data and documentation for this collection in essentially the same form in which they were received.

Exit Poll Data Documentation for November 7, 2000

I. Introduction This document describes the 2000 Voter News Service exit poll datasets, explains how to access the data and interpret the column location documentation, and includes important information regarding the analysis of these data. There are 51 individual state exit poll datasets and a national exit poll dataset. Sections of this document are applicable to both the state and national data, whereas other sections pertain to either one or the other. Attached are the following: a description of the “2000 VNS Exit Poll Methodology,” a list of state numbers, detailed column location information for each dataset, a list of all questions altered for the 2000 general election and the exit poll questionnaires in .PDF format. II. Data Files Fifty-two data files are available – 1 dataset for each state survey and 1 for the national survey. The data are made available as ascii files and in SPSS format on CD-ROM. Within each state’s directory on your CD-ROM, you will find a folder containing the ascii file (ending in .DAT) and column definitions (a text document) for that state, as well as an SPSS folder containing datafiles (ending in .SAV) and portable files. There is also a folder containing the questionnaire for that state in .PDF format.

III. All Surveys

The information in this section applies to the national and all of the state surveys. a. Weights Columns 75-80 contain respondent weights. The weight has 3 implied decimal places (e.g. , '164222' in columns 75-80 means the respondent's weight=164.222). These weights should be applied in all analyses. Unweighted tabulations may be seriously misleading and should not be used. In the SPSS data file, these values can be found under the variable label WEIGHT. The decimal places have already been allocated in these files. For additional information on weighting, see the “2000 VNS Exit Poll Methodology” below. b. Backside Variable

When Column 66 (or the variable BACKSIDE in the SPSS file)=1 it means that the respondent answered at least one question on the backside of the questionnaire, indicating that the questionnaire was turned over. When analyzing backside items, this variable allows the researcher to omit respondents who did not turn over the questionnaire. c. Omitted Questions

So that your results will match the numbers published by VNS, we have applied our policies for coding omits to the SPSS files we distribute. It is our policy to exclude omits (item non-response) from analyses of most demographic variables, but include omits for most opinion questions. In our SPSS files, for those variables where we do not count the omits, non-responses have been entered as “System Missing” - they will appear as dots in the file. For those variables where we do count the omits, we have re-coded the non-responses from a blank to a “9” so that by default they will appear in your analyses. For example, omits to a question on Bill Clinton’s job approval were entered as “9”, whereas omits to the Age question were entered as “System Missing”. It is also our policy to exclude the omits for questions that appear on the back of the questionnaire in cases where the respondent did not answer ANY questions on the back of the questionnaire. The “backside” variable is used to flag such cases. We have also applied this adjustment to the SPSS files. d. Additional Items

A sample of exit poll precincts was drawn in each state. A subsample of these precincts was selected to form the national sample. Respondents in the national precincts were given one of four versions of the national questionnaire. The four versions were interleaved on pads that were handed out to respondents. Responses to the four versions are combined into one dataset. All versions have questions in common as well as questions unique to each version. On the bottom right corner of each version of the national questionnaire is a code that indicates the color of the questionnaire. These colors correspond to the version numbers in column 3: 2 = W – White 3 = Y – Yellow 4 = G – Grey 5 = P – Pink

5

To determine which questions are on which version of the questionnaire, simply crosstab each question by “Version” (column 3). All questions which do not appear on a particular version are entered as “System Missing” and will not affect your analysis for that version. The generic versions of the national questionnaires are included in .PDF form. The national questionnaire used in each state included the appropriate candidates in the statewide races. For the House vote, cards with the names of the candidates running in that congressional district were attached to the questionnaire pad next to the House vote question. In addition, VNS has made a provision for asking a question about a late breaking news event. On the Sunday before the election, VNS interviewers were given question wording to add to one version of the National questionnaire. This language was added by the interviewer to Question AA on the version labeled “G-2000-N-Pink.” In the national dataset, this variable is labeled BREAKING. It appeared on the questionnaire as: In your vote for president today, how would you rate the importance of: Bush’s 1976 drunken driving arrest? 1=Very important 2=Somewhat important 3=Not too important 4=Not at all important b. The Race Question

On the national questionnaire a “Hispanic Descent” question was asked in addition to the Race question. When a respondent answered “yes” to the “Hispanic Descent” question, the respondent's Race was coded "Hispanic" in column 20/SPSS variable RACE (regardless of how he/she answered the Race question). This was done to better identify Hispanic voters who could have answered "white" or some other race on the Race question. It is these data (in column 20/RACE) that were reported on election day. The original responses to the Race question, called “Q-Race, ” can be found in column 73/SPSS variable QRACE. Findings on Hispanics in the 2000 exit poll will NOT be comparable to results in previous presidential election years because Voter News Service changed how it measures Hispanics after 1996. Before 1998, the exit polls treated Hispanics as a racial group. Respondents were asked whether they were white, black, Hispanic/Latino, Asian or another race. Since 1998, the exit polls have added a separate question asking respondents, regardless of their race, if they're of Hispanic descent. People who answer either question positively are now counted as Hispanics. The effect of the change is to increase the number of self-identified Hispanics in exit poll results. Comparisons to previous years can be made only among the subset of Hispanics who identify themselves as Hispanic in the race question.

V. State Surveys The information in this section applies only to the state surveys. a. Design As mentioned above, a sample of exit poll precincts was drawn in each state. A subsample of these precincts was selected to form the national sample. The remaining precincts in each state made up the state sample and were given questionnaires specific to that state. Because the national questionnaire has several items in common with the state questionnaire, national respondents are included in the state exit poll dataset for these common questions. To determine which questions are on the national questionnaire, simply crosstab each question by Column 65/SPSS variable STATE, indicating whether the respondent completed the state or national survey. If the corresponding item did not appear on that respondent’s version of the questionnaire, it was entered as “System Missing” and will appear as a dot in the dataset. Remember, as noted above, some questions on the national survey appear on all four versions of the national and some do not. b. The Race Question A separate “Hispanic Descent” question was asked in states with a large Hispanic population. For the 2000 general elections, these states were: Arizona, California, Colorado, the District of Columbia, Florida, Illinois, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon and Texas. This was treated in the state files the same way as in the national file (see above). c. Additional Item The following item, not on the questionnaire, was added to all of the state datasets: Short Label Column Location Description GEOCODE 67 Geographic Code (2 to 5 categories): VNS-coded geographic regions within a state

(See attached column location documentation for description of codes)

d. Telephone Surveys For the 2000 general elections, VNS conducted telephone surveys of absentee/early voters in two states – California and Washington – and a survey of voters in Oregon. The telephone surveys asked the same questions that were on the exit poll questionnaire. The telephone data were combined with the exit poll data in California and Washington and were weighted to reflect the relative proportion of absentee/early voters and election day voters. There is a variable in each of these files indicating whether the respondent was interviewed as part of the exit poll or the telephone poll (Column 64).

8

The telephone surveys were conducted the week before the election in Oregon and Washington. In California, the survey was conducted ten days before the election. In each state, the survey included voters who had either already voted absentee/early or who were likely to do so. These are the sample sizes for each survey: California, N=300; Oregon, N=600; Washington, N=300. The Ohio State University Survey Research Unit conducted the fieldwork for the Oregon and Washington surveys and the Field Institute conducted the fieldwork for the California survey. Households were selected using random-digit dialing, and a respondent was randomly selected within each household. Before the telephone survey results were combined with the exit poll data they were weighted to reflect the probabilities of selection and to reflect the demographic characteristics in that state. In the Oregon survey, given the relatively short field period for the data collection, it was noted that proportionately more Republicans were interviewed than the known proportions of Republicans who had voted in 1994, 1996, and 1998. As such, in Oregon a final weighting adjustment was made for party affiliation.

2000 VNS EXIT POLL METHODOLOGY

The VNS exit polls were developed and conducted by Voter News Service. VNS is an association of ABC News, CNN, CBS News, FOX News, NBC News and the Associated Press. The exit poll results are based on interviews with a probability sample of voters exiting polling places around the state on Election Day. The error due to sampling for most state exit poll questions is approximately plus or minus 4 percentage points (see the attached chart). This means 95 times out of 100, samples like this one will have results within 4 points of what a complete count of all voters would show. Results based on part of the sample will have larger margins of error, as will groups of voters -- such as Blacks -- who are found disproportionately only in some precincts. Sampling The samples were selected in two stages. First, a probability sample of voting precincts within each state was selected that represents the different geographic areas across the state and the vote by party. Precincts were selected with a probability proportionate to the number of voters in each precinct. Each voter in a state had the same chance to have his or her precinct selected. There is one exception. In some states, precincts that have large minority populations were sampled at a higher rate than other precincts. The sample weighting (described below) adjusts the representation of these precincts to their correct share of the total vote. Second, within each precinct, voters were sampled systematically throughout the voting day at a rate that gives all voters in a precinct the same chance of being interviewed. The National sample is a subsample of the state sample precincts. The probability of selecting these precincts was the same as if the sample had been selected at a uniform rate nationwide, with the exception that minority precincts were again selected at a higher rate.

Weighting The exit poll results are weighted to reflect the complexity of the sampling design. That is, the weighting takes into account the different probabilities of selecting a precinct and of selecting a voter within each precinct. For example, minority precincts that were selected at a higher rate receive a smaller weight than other precincts of the same size. There is also an adjustment for voters who were missed or refused to be interviewed, which is based on their observed age, race and sex. NOTE: The exit poll results are only meaningful if they are weighted. Unweighted tabulations may be seriously misleading and should not be used for any reason. The Grabbag Question Format Prior to 1996, VNS used a question format called the “Grabbag” which consisted of a list of 7-9 items with the instruction to check all that apply. Some examples of items that were asked as part of the Grabbag are union, religious right and gay/lesbian/bisexual. Starting in 1996, VNS dropped the

10

Grabbag question format in favor of asking separate questions for each item. Exit poll users are cautioned against comparing estimates from the Grabbag with those from the full questions because the Grabbag format significantly underestimates the population values

Other Altered Questions

Comparing data from one election year to another should be done carefully. “Trends” are established by comparing questions that are asked in exactly the same way. Failure to exercise appropriate care could lead to invalid conclusions about voting behavior. Please note the following changes that may or may not affect your comparisons:

• Hispanic Vote: See the separate warning in this packet • Union Vote

VNS has changed the response categories to this question. This year, the question and responses are as follows: Do you or does someone in your household belong to a labor union? Yes, I do; Yes, someone else does; Yes, I do and someone else does and No one does. In 1996 and 1998, VNS asked the question Do you or does someone in your household belong to a labor union? There were two response categories: Yes, No. Prior to 1996, the Union question was asked as part of a “grab bag”. VNS recommends that you do not make comparisons back to 1992.

• VNS has changed one of the response categories in the education question, adding an associate degree to the some college option. • VNS has added an age category on the questionnaire, 75 or over

This list is not meant to be all-inclusive. Please check the questionnaire before automatically making comparative statements. You will also find attached a comprehensive list of all questions that have been changed for the 2000 elections. It is your responsibility to use these data wisely. If you are in doubt about making a comparative statement, please call us for assistance.

Sampling Error

The error due to sampling depends on, among other things, the number of respondents in each group. The sampling errors below are for most voter groups. There are 95 chances in 100 that a sample result is within this many percentage points of the result that would have been obtained by trying to interview every voter.

The sampling error also depends on how many precincts have voters with the characteristic of interest. For example, black or high income voters may be found clustered in only a few sample precincts. A characteristic that is clustered in a few precincts has a larger sampling error than characteristics that are not clustered, such as sex. Sampling error may be up to three times larger for clustered characteristics.

Example: If there are a total of 1,000 respondents in the sample, the sampling error on the percentage of men voting for a candidate depends on the number of men in the poll. In this example, if there are 500 men, the table below shows that the sampling error is plus or minus 6.0 percentage points.
