About this Poll
The most recent survey by Fairleigh Dickinson University’s PublicMind was conducted by telephone from Sept. 28, 2009, through Oct.5, 2009, using a randomly selected sample of 667 likely voters statewide. The margin of error for a sample of 667 randomly selected respondents is +/- 4 percentage points. Survey results are also subject to non-sampling error. This kind of error, which cannot be measured, arises from a number of factors including, but not limited to, non-response (eligible individuals refusing to be interviewed), question wording, the order in which questions are asked, and variations among interviewers. PublicMind interviews are conducted by professionally trained interviewers use a CATI (Computer
Assisted Telephone Interviewing) system. Random selection is achieved by computerized random-digit dialing. This
technique gives every person with a land-line phone number (including those with unlisted numbers) an equal chance of
being selected. Results are mathematically weighted to match known demographics.
