2016 Pre-election Poll of African American Voters

November 4, 2016 – 2016 African American Voter Poll. Slides By: Ray Block Jr. and Jonathan E. Collins
Background on Poll Methodology: The poll [consists] of 1200 completed surveys. The national segment of the survey will contain a sample size of 300 completed surveys, with additional state-specific segments with 900 completes (300 completed surveys in each of NV, PA, and GA). For this survey, we will be interviewing African American registered likely voters, and the average length of these interviews will be approximately 20 minutes. Half (50%) of completed surveys will be obtained via phone (contacting both land lines and cell phones), and 50% will be obtained via the web. For the web portion of the survey, participants will be randomly selected from voter file records with email addresses (“RRW”) and invited to participate in the study with prior voting history appended to respondents. RRW will be supplemented with additional web survey methodologies if needed in cases of small sample sizes.  The web and cell phone elements of the survey, as well as incorporating new registrants, are meant in part to help ensure sufficient numbers of millennial voters. The African American Research Collaborative is working with Latino Decisions to complete this poll.”
