Summary View help for Summary
This survey assessed the political climate of the United States on March 18, 1992. Those surveyed were asked whether they approved of the way the United States Congress was doing its job and, more specifically, the way their own United States Representative was doing his/her job, whether they felt enthusiastic about the way the federal government worked, and whether they had favorable impressions of the presidential candidates, and their wives. Respondents were also asked which presidential candidate they would trust to do the best job with the economy, whether they were satisfied that each candidate had the honesty and integrity to serve effectively as president, and whether each candidate understood the problems of the average American well enough to serve effectively as president. Additional questions probed respondents regarding the re-election of their own representatives to Congress, term limits for United States Representatives, and the congressional check-writing scandal. Background information on respondents includes political alignment, voter registration status, most recent presidential vote choice, education, age, race, income, and sex.
