Summary

For this survey, which queried residents of Florida, questions were posed regarding respondents' vote intentions for the 1992 presidential election, their opinions of the 1992 presidential candidates and their running mates, and the likelihood of their voting in the 1992 presidential election. Those surveyed answered questions concerning Hurricane Andrew, Congress, the national economy, the federal budget deficit, the concern of the presidential candidates for the needs and problems of the people, and the one issue that the respondent wished the presidential candidates would talk about. Respondents were also asked to give their approval rating of George Bush with respect to his handling of the presidency, foreign affairs, Hurricane Andrew, and the economy. Background information on respondents includes sex, age, race, education, religious preference, family income, financial situation, political orientation, party preference, voter registration status, and vote choices in the 1984 and 1988 presidential elections.
