Summary

This special topic poll, conducted June 4-8, was undertaken to assess respondents' opinions of Michael Bloomberg and his performance as mayor of New York City, the recovery efforts following the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, and the long-range view for New York City. Respondents were asked to comment on the following: Mayor Michael Bloomberg's performance and priorities compared to those of former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, the effectiveness of Cardinal Edward Michael Egan and Bishop Thomas Daily in light of sex abuse scandals in the Catholic Church, the health of the New York City economy, and everyday life in New York City including public schools and transportation. Additional questions addressed the September 11, 2001, attacks on the World Trade Center and how they impacted respondents' sleep cycles and levels of anxiety, as well as transportation security, law enforcement tactics, and the economy. Respondents gave their opinions on the likelihood of another terrorist attack, the effectiveness and likelihood of federal aid, and proposed plans for the World Trade Center site. Background variables include age, ethnicity, education, household income, sex, voter registration status, participation in religion, marital status, 2001 mayoral election participation, political orientation, the lack or presence of children, the type of school children in the household attend, and the number of phone lines in the home.

Within households, respondents were selected using a method developed by Leslie Kish and modified by Charles Backstrom and Gerald Hursh (see Backstrom and Hursh, SURVEY RESEARCH. Evanston, IL: Northwestern University Press, 1963).
