you intend to vote this year, are you officially registered as a Democrat, a
Republican, an Independent, or in some other way?
QC. In November, elections will be held for Governor, U.S. Senate, Congress, and
other offices. But there is no election for President. Although it is a while away, how
likely are you to vote in that election: will you definitely vote; probably but not
certainly vote in it; are the chances about 50-50 that you will vote, or is it likely that
