INTRODUCTION & METHODOLOGY


On behalf of KGW TV, The Oregonian, and OregonLive, Riley Research Associates conducted a statewide telephone survey among
608 registered voters who indicated they were either very likely or certain to vote in the upcoming November election.
In past polls only those with a record of having voted in at least two of the last four elections were included. In this race, because
many new voters have registered in the past year, we allowed new and less likely voters to participate, provided they indicated they
are either certain or extremely likely to vote in the November 8th election.
A sample of 608 is considered accurate to within +/-3.97 percent at a 95 percent level of confidence. The scientific telephone poll
took place between October 4th and October 14th, 2016.
The sample demographics were closely monitored to ensure they match those of Oregons likely voters, including accurate
representation for gender, age, political party, and region. Both landlines and cell phones were included in the sample. Candidate
names were read in rotating order to respondents in order to eliminate any sense of preference. Candidates names were associated
with the political parties they represent.
Regions are composed of the following counties:
Portland
Metro
Clackamas
Columbia
Multnomah
Washington

Willamette
Valley
Benton
Lane
Linn
Marion

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
State of Oregon
Half of Oregonians believe Oregon is on the right track (50%), while two-fifths feel it is on the wrong track (41%), and 9% are
unsure. However, feelings are stronger among those who say Oregon is going in the wrong direction, with 23% saying they
strongly feel that way, compared to just 12% who strongly feel it is on the right track.

Presidential Race
Hillary Clinton is poised to win Oregon this November, with 46% of likely voters planning on casting their vote for Clinton,
compared to 36% who plan to vote for Donald Trump. Voters feel strongly about their respective candidates, with very few saying
they are only somewhat likely to vote for their candidate, and very few are undecided (4%).
Libertarian Gary Johnson and Green Party candidate Jill Stein each received 5% of the vote, while 4% have plans to write-in a
different candidate.

Those who plan to vote for Hillary Clinton tend to support her as a candidate (55%). Nearly one-third cited experience and
qualifications as the main reasons they are voting for Clinton (30%). Most of the remaining 43% of Clinton supporters are voting
for Clinton because she is the lesser of two evils (25%).
While fewer will vote for Trump, those who do support Trump appear to support him more strongly than those who plan to vote for
Hillary Clinton. Some 62% say they are voting for Trump rather than voting against Clinton. The top reasons Oregonians are
voting for Trump include his status as a political outsider (14%), his business expertise (13%), and his conservative values (12%);
14% are voting for Trump because he is the lesser of two evils, while 8% say Clinton is corrupt and 7% say Clinton is not
trustworthy.
Gary Johnson supporters tend to feel he is better than the other candidates and is trustworthy. Jill Steins supporters feel she is
better than the other candidates, is trustworthy, and has business expertise.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW (CONTINUED)


Oregon Governor
Nearly half of Oregonians plan on casting their vote for Democrat and Working Families candidate Kate Brown (48%), with Bud
Pierce trailing by 14%, with 34% of the likely vote. A majority of voters feel strongly about their candidate, with most saying they
are very likely to vote for their respective candidate.
Other candidates in the running are only tracking at 1% to 2% each, and 13% remain undecided as to which candidate they will
vote for in November.

Ballot Measure 97
Support and opposition for Ballot Measure 97 is at a virtual tie, with 47% indicating they will likely vote to oppose the measure,
and 46% saying they will vote to support it. Those who plan to oppose the measure tend to feel a bit stronger about their
opposition than those who are supporting the measure. Some remain undecided about the measure (7%).

KGW TV 8, The Oregonian & OregonLive / Likely Voter Survey


October 18, 2016

Q6. Our last question is about Ballot Measure 97, previously known as IP 28. If approved by voters, this measure would raise corporate
taxes on businesses with annual sales that exceed 25 million dollars. If you were filling out your ballot today, would you vote yes to
support this new tax, or would you vote no to oppose it? (Is that strongly or somewhat?)
