4) Pre-Election Post-stratified weight: This is a 6-digit variable with a coded decimal point and 4 decimal places. This weight compensates for the unequal probabilities of selection for respondents in different size households and for different non-response across geographic sample design categories. A post stratification adjustment used the 2000 CPS March Supplement estimates as the standard. The cells were formed by crossing 6 age groups by 4 levels of education. The age groups were: 18-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70+. The education levels were: lt high school graduation, high school graduate, some college, and 4 years of college or more. (WEIGHT1)

5) Post-Election Post-stratified weight: This is a 6-digit variable with a coded decimal point and 4 decimal places (See WEIGHT1). WEIGHT2 values are constructed for the cases re-interviewed in the Post. [0 = No Post interview] (WEIGHT2)

8) HHLISTING: FRESH CROSS Selection Table: The Selection Table is used to select a respondent from all household members who are eligible adults (An eligible adult is a U.S. citizen who is 18 years of age or older). A Selection Table was randomly assigned to all households in the Fresh Cross sample component. After a complete listing of the household was taken, each eligible adult was assigned a 'Number' based on the criteria of gender and age [beginning with the oldest male as number 1, males numbered by increments of 1 according to descending age; females numbered by descending age starting with the number one higher than that assigned to the youngest male]. The interviewer then used the Selection Table to determine the 'Number' of the eligible adult to be interviewed. There were 8 different selection tables. (HHFRCROS)

Rating above 50 means that you feel favorable and warm toward the person. Rating below 50 means that you feel unfavorable and cool toward the person. Rating right at the 50 degree mark means you don't feel particularly warm or cold. You may use any number from 0 to 100 to tell me how favorable or unfavorable your feelings are. If we come to a person whose name you don't recognize, just tell me and we'll move on to the next one: -- THERMOMETER RATING: GEORGE W.
