About this Poll

These are findings from an Ipsos poll conducted August 27-29, 2010 on behalf of Reuters. Interviews were conducted by
telephone with live interviewers. For the survey, a representative, randomly selected sample of exactly 600 adults aged 18 and
older across Pennsylvania who are registered voters was interviewed by Ipsos. With a sample of this size, results are
considered accurate within 4.0 percentage points, 19 times out of 20, of what they would have been had the entire population
of registered voters in Pennsylvania been polled. Likely voters (reported on for ballot questions only) are defined as individuals
currently registered to vote, who voted in the 2008 Presidential election, are a 7-10 on a 10-point likelihood to vote scale, and
are interested in following news about the campaign ‘a great deal’ or ‘quite a bit.’ Individuals who did not vote in the 2008
Presidential election qualify as likely voters if they are registered to vote, are an 8-10 on a 10-point likelihood to vote scale, and
are interested in following news about the campaign ‘a great deal’ or ‘quite a bit.’ Out of our sample of 600 registered voters,
407 are likely voters. With a sample of this size, results are considered accurate within ±4.9 percentage points, 19 times out of
20, of what they would have been had the entire adult population in the U.S. been polled.
