HOW THE POLL WAS CONDUCTED AND THE
MARGIN OF ERROR CALCULATED
The CBS News/YouGov survey of 1,245 registered voters in Wisconsin was conducted between
April 19-25, 2024.
This sample was weighted according to gender, age, race, and education based on the U.S.
Census American Community Survey, and the U.S. Census Current Population Survey, as well
as 2020 Presidential vote. “Likely voters” – respondents’ relative probabilities of voting – were
determined using a regression model that incorporates current, self-reported intentions to vote,
along with individual-level and aggregate data about voters, such as demographics and vote
history. Respondents were selected to be representative of registered voters in Wisconsin. Of the
1,245 respondents, 821 were selected from YouGov’s online panel, 230 were selected from Pure
Spectrum’s online panell, 133 were selected from Full Circle’s online panel, and 61 were selected
from Dynata’s online panel. The weights range from 0.1 to 5.5, with a mean of 1 and a standard
deviation of 0.6.
The margin of error (a 95% confidence interval) for a sample percentage p based upon the entire
sample is approximately ±3.3 points.. It is calculated using the formula
s
1 + CV2
p̂ ± 100 ×
n
where CV is the coefficient of variation of the sample weights and n is the sample size used
to compute the proportion. This is a measure of sampling error (the average of all estimates
obtained using the same sample selection and weighting procedures repeatedly). The sample
estimate should differ from its expected value by less than margin of error in 95 percent of
all samples. It does not reflect non-sampling errors, including potential selection bias in panel
participation or in response to a particular survey.
