Washington Post-ABC News poll

This Washington Post-ABC News poll was conducted by telephone October 8-11, 2008, among a random national sample of 1,101 adults, including additional interviews with randomly selected African Americans and 18-29 year olds, for a total of 150 black respondents and 201 18-29 year olds. The added interviews (commonly referred to as an "oversample") were completed to ensure there were enough respondents in each group for separate analysis; neither group was over-represented in the reported results. The results from the full survey have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points. Sampling, data collection and tabulation by TNS of Horsham, Pa.

*= less than 0.5 percent
