Results for this poll were collected using a sampling frame that gathered responses from 1,172 likely national voters during live calls, online panels, and automated telephone interviews conducted by Cor Strategies, Inc.
The survey was conducted October 7–11, 2024. The margin of sampling error is ±2.94 percentage points. The margin of sampling error may be higher or lower for subgroups. Results presented may not always appear to total 100 percent due to rounding.
Data were post-stratified using weighted demographic information from the U.S. Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey Voting and Registration Supplement and the state election authorities.
Demographic information for actual voters in past elections was used to construct sample target weights.
Cicero Institute paid for all costs associated with this survey.
