POLLING DATE: August 12-21, 2022
POLL BACKGROUND INFO: The online survey reached a total of 1,500 likely voters which includes a base sample of 1,000 likely voters with oversamples of 100 African American likely voters, 100 Asian American Pacific Islander likely voters, 100 Latinx likely voters, 100 suburban caregivers, and 100 LGBTQ likely voters. These oversamples were weighted down into the base sample to their proper proportion of the universe for a total sample size of 1,000. We also surveyed 100 Democratic 2022 surge voters which was kept separate from the base sample.
The margin of error is +/-2.5%.
