About this PollThe latest Rutgers-Eagleton Poll was conducted Aug. 2-7, 2007 with a scientifically selected random sample of 1,002 New Jersey adults. This sample yielded 891 adult residents who said they are registered to vote in New Jersey. Unless otherwise noted, most of the figures in this release are based on the statewide sample of registered voters. Sampling and data collection were conducted by Braun Research, Princeton, NJ.

All surveys are subject to sampling error, which is the expected probable difference between interviewing everyone in a population versus a scientific sampling drawn from that population. The sampling error for a sample of 1,002 adults is + 3.1 percent, at a 95 percent confidence interval. The margin of sampling error for 891 registered voters is + 3.3 percent.
