Anderson Robbins Research (D) / Shaw & Company Research (R) Interviews Conducted:
N= 911 registered voters (709 landline, 202 cell phone) April 25-27, 2011

For Release 6PM ET Monday, May 16, 2011

Methodology

The Fox News Poll is conducted under the joint direction of Anderson Robbins Research (D) and
Shaw & Company Research (R). The poll is based on live telephone interviews with a national
sample of 911 registered voters, and was conducted April 25-27, 2011 in the evenings.

Landline and cell phone telephone numbers were randomly selected for inclusion in the survey
using a probability proportionate to size method, which means that phone numbers for each state
are proportional to the number of voters in each state.

Results based on the full sample have a margin of error of ± 3%.

Results among subgroups have larger sampling errors, including: Democrats (n = 411) ± 5%;
Republicans (n = 322) ± 6%; Independents (n = 159) ± 8%.
LV = likely voters

Results from Fox News polls before February 2011 were conducted by Opinion Dynamics Corp.
