About this Poll
The Research 2000 Kentucky Poll was conducted from October 19 through October 21,
2008. A total of 600 likely voters who vote regularly in state elections were interviewed
statewide by telephone.
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 the voter registration of
distribution 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 for gender or party
affiliation.
