Poll Methodology

The reported results on public attitudes come from national surveys conducted by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research and Public Opinion Strategies for National Public Radio. In this first collaboration for NPR, both firms added the NPR questions to omnibus national surveys.

With a view to the upcoming elections, the surveys were conducted with likely voters. All participants were registered voters, voted in the 2000 presidential election (or not eligible), and indicated they were certain or almost certain to vote in 2002. The sample of potential respondents was generated by random digit dial methodology. GQR interviewed 877 voters, with a margin of error of 3.3 percent. The POS survey interviewed 633 likely voters with a margin of error of 3.9 percent.
