Unless otherwise noted, results beginning with the August 3-6, 2017 survey and ending with the April 21-26, 2021
survey are from polls conducted by SSRS via telephone only. For more informa=on about other trend data included
in this topline, please see the “More on Methodology” sec=on at the end of this document.

NOTE ABOUT CROSSTABS

Surveys were conducted among a representa=ve sample of the adult popula=on, age 18 or older, of the United
States. Members of demographic groups not shown in the published crosstabs are represented in the results for
each ques=on in the poll. Crosstabs on the pages that follow only include results for subgroups with a minimum
N=125 unweighted cases. Results for subgroups with fewer than N=125 unweighted cases are not displayed and
instead are denoted with "SN" because samples of that size carry larger margins of sampling error and can be too
small to be projectable with confidence to their true values in the popula=on.

MORE ON METHODOLOGY

A total of n=1,255 adults were surveyed via web and phone on the SSRS Opinion Panel, a na=onally representa=ve
panel of U.S. adults ages 18 or older recruited using probability-based sampling techniques. Surveys were
conducted in English and Spanish.

Results for the full sample have a margin of sampling error of +/- 3.4 percentage points.

Among the en=re sample, 32% described themselves as Democrats, 33% described themselves as Republicans, and
35% described themselves as independents or members of another party.

The en=re sample was weighted to reflect na=onal Census figures for gender, race, age, educa=on, region of
country, popula=on density, civic engagement, and Pew Research Center's NPORS figures for religious affilia=on
and frequency of internet use. The sample was also weighted for self-reported voter registra=on, 2020 recalled
vote, party iden=fica=on in detail (leaners broken out) and collapsed crossed by self-reported poli=cal ideology,
self-reported voter registra=on, race by educa=on, sex, age, region. The benchmarks for voter registra=on, 2020
recalled vote and the party iden=fica=on crosses were taken from CNN's na=onal poll conducted by SSRS via web
and phone from July 1-31, 2023, which implemented a full probability design via Address-Based Sampling (ABS).

Surveys were conducted among a representa=ve sample of the adult popula=on, age 18 or older, of the United
States. Members of demographic groups not shown in the published crosstabs are represented in the results for
each ques=on in the poll. Crosstabs on the pages that follow only include results for subgroups with a minimum
n=125 unweighted cases. Results for subgroups with fewer than n=125 unweighted cases are not displayed and
instead are denoted with "SN" because samples of that size carry larger margins of sampling error and can be too
small to be projectable with confidence to their true values in the popula=on.
