Methodology:
This was a Denno Research survey of likely 2018 Democratic Primary voters. 500 respondents were
surveyed between April 6-7, 2018, with a margin of error of plus/minus 4%, and the participation was
stratified based on census data and past voter behavior. 150 respondents (30%) were from cell phone users,
in an attempt to gather younger voters who do not have a land line. A screen was employed to include only
those participants who said they would vote, either at the polls or by absentee ballot, in the 2018 Democratic
Primary Election. All numbers are rounded and may not equal 100%.
