This poll, fielded September 24-27, 2006, is part of a continuing series of monthly surveys that solicit public opinion on the current presidency and on a range of other political and social issues. Despite being termed a monthly poll, this poll's specific focus was on the opinions and judgments of people currently living in the state of New York. Respondents were asked to give their opinions on the upcoming 2006 election for the New York governor, specifically their opinions about gubernatorial candidates, Eliot Spitzer and John Faso. Subjects were also asked about the upcoming New York senatorial election and their opinions about that race's candidates, Hillary Clinton and John Spencer. Respondents were also asked about the upcoming election for state attorney general and their opinions about candidates Andrew Cuomo and Jeanine Pirro. Respondents were asked to give their opinions about several politicians: President George Bush, Governor George Pataki, Senator Charles Schumer, Senator Hillary Clinton, and Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Respondents were asked how they thought the New York legislature in Albany was handling its job, and of the problems facing New York State, what they wanted the next governor to concentrate on most. Respondents were also asked to rate the state of the New York economy. Respondents were then asked to give their opinion on sentencing for people convicted of murder and terrorism. Other major issues such as gay marriage and the war in Iraq were also covered, along with additional topics specific to New York such as balancing the budget, future terrorist attacks, education, taxes, and which candidate for senator would help improve on these areas. Additionally respondents were asked which candidate for Senator cared most for people in different areas of New York: New York City, the suburbs, and upstate New York. Respondents were also asked how they thought the candidates for governor would handle issues such as taxes, terrorism, and the economy. Additional questions asked respondents how they would categorize the political attitudes of the candidates for governor and senator. Their opinions were sought on Hillary Clinton's job as senator, whether she had become a true New Yorker, and the prospect of her running for president, and whether Rudolph Giuliani, Michael Bloomberg, or George Pataki should run for president in 2008. Respondents were asked their views on Andrew Cuomo and Jeanine Pirro, including information about their campaign practices and their experience level. Lastly, they were asked if they would want the Mets or the Yankees to win if there were a subway World Series that year. Demographic variables include race, sex, age, level of education, financial situation, income, voter registration, voting activity, status, political ideology, party affiliation, marital status, religious affiliation, and number of years living in their current community.

Released/updated on: 2006-01-12
Geographic coverage: United States, Pomona, California, Pasadena
Time period: 1989-01-01--1991-12-31
These data were collected to explore connections between street gangs and drug distribution. The research objectives for this study were (1) to assess the magnitude of gang involvement in cocaine and other drug sales in two suburban cities, (2) to compare the characteristics of gang-involved drug sale incidents with those without gang involvement, (3) to assess the generalizability of findings on cocaine to other drugs, and from urban to more suburban settings, and (4) to translate the implications of the research findings into the development of law enforcement strategies. Law enforcement arrest records and gang membership records were obtained for two study sites, Pasadena and Pomona, California. Part 1, the incident-level file, supplies information on arrest incidents qualifying as drug sales. Variables in the file include presence at arrest of violence, guns, cash, and drugs, types of charges, gang characteristics of the incident, racial/ethnic makeup of arrestees, gender of arrestees, and gang affiliation of arrestees. Part 2, the participant-level file, supplies data on each participant in each incident. Variables in this file include gender, ethnicity, gang membership status, and charges.
