Statement of Methodology

This survey of 500 likely Virginia general election voters was conducted between October 21 and October 24, 2021, and is based on live telephone interviews of adults who indicated they were very likely to vote in the November 2021 general election for governor. Each area’s quota and demographic information -- including race and age -- was determined from previous like elections and 2020 Census data. Samples of both standard landline and cell phones were called using a probability-proportionate-to-size method, which means that the phone numbers assigned to each county were proportional to the number of likely voters expected based on similar past elections. Virginia's 95 counties and 38 independent cities were grouped into five general regions. Respondents in the household were selected by initially asking for the youngest adult. The margin of sampling error for results based on the total sample is +/-4.4 percentage points. Error margins increase for smaller subgroups in the cross-tabulation document that follows. All surveys may be subject to other sources of error, including but not limited to coverage error and measurement error.

This survey of 500 registered California voters was conducted between September 6 and September 7, 2021 and is based on live telephone interviews of adults who indicated that they plan to vote in the September 14, 2021 gubernatorial recall election. Each area’s quota and demographic information -- including race and age -- was determined from the 2003 California recall election as well as current American Community Survey Census data. Samples of both standard landlines and cell phones were called using a probability-proportionate-to-size method, which means that the phone numbers assigned to each county were proportional to the number of likely voters expected based on similar past elections. The 57 California counties were grouped into five general regions. Respondents in the household were selected by initially asking for the youngest adult. The margin of sampling error for results based on the total sample is +/- 4.4 percentage points. Error margins increase for smaller subgroups in the cross-tabulation document that follows.
