Yahoo! News Poll
The sample was weighted according to gender, age, race, education, 2020 election turnout
and Presidential vote, baseline party identification, and current voter registration status. De-
mographic weighting targets come from the 2019 American Community Survey. Baseline party
identification is the respondent’s most recent answer given prior to November 1, 2022, and is
weighted to the estimated distribution at that time (33% Democratic, 27% Republican). Re-
spondents were selected from YouGov’s opt-in panel to be representative of all U.S. adults.
The weights range from 0.2 to 3.8, with a mean of 1 and a standard deviation of 0.5.
The margin of error (a 95% confidence interval) for a sample percentage p based upon the
entire sample is approximately 2.8%. It is calculated using the formula
s
1 + CV2
p̂ ± 100 ×
n
where CV is the coefficient of variation of the sample weights and n is the sample size used
to compute the proportion. This is a measure of sampling error (the average of all estimates
obtained using the same sample selection and weighting procedures repeatedly). The sample
estimate should differ from its expected value by less than margin of error in 95 percent of all
samples. It does not reflect non-sampling errors, including potential selection bias in panel
participation or in response to a particular survey.
