Obama holds moderate lead in PA registered voters By: Uwecwiz (D-WI) - 2008-08-13 @ 13:09:57 The survey findings presented in this release are based on the results of interviews conducted August 4 - 10, 2008. The interviews were conducted at the Center for Opinion Research at Franklin & Marshall College under the direction of the poll’s Director, Dr. G. Terry Madonna, Head Methodologist, Berwood Yost, and Project Manager, Jennifer Harding. The data included in this release represent the responses of 641 adult residents of Pennsylvania who are currently registered to vote. Telephone numbers for the survey were generated using random digit dialing, and respondents were randomly selected from within each household. Final survey results were weighted to adjust for different selection probabilities and non-response. The sample error for registered adults is +/- 3.9 percent. In addition to sampling error, this poll is also subject to other sources of non-sampling error. Generally speaking, two sources of error concern researchers most. Non-response bias is created when selected participants either choose not to participate in the survey or are unavailable for interviewing. Response errors are the product of the question and answer process. Surveys that rely on self-reported behaviors and 3 attitudes are susceptible to biases related to the way respondents process and respond to survey questions. This Franklin & Marshall College Poll is produced in conjunction with the Philadelphia Daily News, WGAL-TV, Pittsburgh Tribune Review, WTAE-TV, WPVI-TV/6ABC, and Times-Shamrock Newspapers. It may be used in whole or part, provided any use is attributed to Franklin & Marshall College.
