Nature of the Sample: NBC News/WSJ/Marist Florida Poll of 1,012 Adults

th
th
This survey of 1,012 adults was conducted August 4 through August 10 , 2016 by The Marist Poll sponsored and funded in partnership with NBC
News and The Wall Street Journal . Adults 18 years of age and older residing in the state of Florida were contacted on landline or mobile numbers
and interviewed in English or Spanish by telephone using live interviewers. Landline telephone numbers were randomly selected based upon a list
of telephone exchanges from throughout the state of Florida from ASDE Survey Sampler, Inc. The exchanges were selected to ensure that each
region was represented in proportion to its population. Respondents in the household were randomly selected by first asking for the youngest
male. This landline sample was combined with respondents reached through random dialing of cell phone numbers from Survey Sampling
International. Assistance was provided by Luce Research for data collection. After the interviews were completed, the two samples were
combined and balanced to reflect the 2013 American Community Survey 5-year estimates for age, gender, income, and region, except for race,
which is from the 2010 census. Results are statistically significant within 3.1 percentage points. There are 862 registered voters. The results for
this subset are statistically significant within 3.3 percentage points. The error margin was not adjusted for sample weights and increases for
cross-tabulations.
