ABC News/Washington Post Post-Democratic Convention Poll, September 1996

Summary

This special topic poll, conducted September 3-4, 1996, is part of a continuing series of monthly surveys that solicit public opinion on the presidency and on a range of political and social issues. The focus of this data collection was on the views of registered voters shortly after the 1996 Democratic National Convention held August 26-29, 1996. Views were sought on Bill Clinton's handling of the presidency and the national economy. Registered voters were asked to rate the likelihood that they would vote in the upcoming presidential election in November, to forecast their choices for president and for United States Representative, and to give their opinions of Hillary Clinton, Elizabeth Dole, Newt Gingrich, and presidential candidates Bill Clinton, Bob Dole, and Ross Perot. In addition, respondents were asked to compare the positions of Bill Clinton and Bob Dole on issues such as taxes, Social Security, crime, welfare, Medicare, the military, the environment, and illegal drug use. Other questions addressed the recent United States missile attack on Iraq, Clinton's handling of the situation, and accusations involving Clinton's chief political advisor Dick Morris. Demographic information includes sex, age, race, education level, household income, political party affiliation, political philosophy, voter registration status and participation history, religion, and whether respondents considered themselves part of the religious right
