Statement of Methodology
This survey of 1,000 registered voters residing in the New England states of Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island, was conducted between June 1-June 5, 2025, and is based on live telephone interviews of adults 18 years of age or older, residing in those three states. Quota and demographic information – including region, gender, education, race, and age – were determined from 2020 American Community Survey Census data. Samples of both cell phones and standard landlines were called using a probability-proportionate-to-size method, which means that the phone numbers assigned to each state were proportional to the number of registered voters in each state. The 14 Massachusetts counties were grouped into four general regions; the 10 New Hampshire counties were grouped into four general regions; and Rhode Island's 39 cities and towns were grouped into three regions. Surveys were administered in English and Spanish. Suffolk University poll student Ana Sophia Sleeman and special assistant Mia Galego contributed to the successful execution of this regional survey. The margin of sampling error for results based on the total respondents is +/-3.1 percentage points. Error margins increase for smaller subgroups in the cross-tabulation document above. All surveys may be subject to other sources of error, including but not limited to coverage error and measurement error.
