About this PollThis poll was conducted by Mason-Dixon Polling & Research, Inc. of Washington, D.C. from September 19 through September 21, 2006. A total of 625 registered Nevada voters were interviewed statewide by telephone. All stated they vote regularly in state elections.

Those interviewed were selected by the random variation of the last four digits of telephone numbers. A cross-section of exchanges was utilized in order to ensure an accurate reflection of the state. Quotas were assigned to reflect voter turn-out by county.

The margin for error, according to standards customarily used by statisticians, is no more than plus or minus 4 percentage points. This means that there is a 95 percent probability that the "true" figure would fall within that range if the entire population were sampled. The margin for error is higher for any subgroup, such as a gender or regional grouping.

This survey also includes an over-sampling of 400 voters in the 2nd Congressional District and 400 voters in the 3rd Congressional District. These over-samplings were only on the questions related to the congressional races, and not the statewide races. The margin for error in each congressional district poll is plus or minus 5%.
