    Note: Q.25-27 should be cited as a USA Today/Gallup poll.

    Results are based on telephone interviews conducted May 5-8, 2011 with a random sample of –1,018—adults,
    aged 18+, living in all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia.

    For results based on the total sample of national adults, one can say with 95% confidence that the margin of
    error is ±4 percentage points.

    For results based on the sample of –530—national adults in Form A and –488—national adults in Form B, the
    maximum margins of sampling error are ±5 percentage points.

    For results based on the sample of –886— registered voters, the maximum margin of sampling error is ±4
    percentage points.

    Interviews are conducted with respondents on landline telephones and cellular phones, with interviews
    conducted in Spanish for respondents who are primarily Spanish-speaking. Each sample includes a minimum
    quota of 400 cell phone respondents and 600 landline respondents, with additional minimum quotas among
    landline respondents for gender within region. Landline numbers are chosen at random among listed telephone
    numbers, cell phone numbers are selected using random-digit dial methods. Landline respondents are chosen at
    random within each household on the basis of which member had the most recent birthday.

    Samples are weighted by gender, age, race, Hispanic ethnicity, education, region, adults in the household, and
    phone status (cell phone only/landline only/both, having an unlisted landline number, and being cell phone
    mostly). Demographic weighting targets are based on the March 2010 Current Population Survey figures for
    the age 18+ non-institutionalized population living in U.S. telephone households. All reported margins of
    sampling error include the computed design effects for weighting and sample design.

    In addition to sampling error, question wording and practical difficulties in conducting surveys can introduce
    error or bias into the findings of public opinion polls.
    8. How would you rate the overall state of moral values in this country today -- as excellent, good, only fair, or
