HOW THE POLL WAS CONDUCTED AND THE
MARGIN OF ERROR CALCULATED

The CBS News/YouGov survey of 2,480 adults in the U.S. was conducted between June 7-10,
2023.
This sample was weighted according to gender, age, race, and education based on the U.S. Census
American Community Survey, and the U.S. Census Current Population Survey, as well as 2020
Presidential vote and 2022 Congressional vote. Respondents were selected to be representative
of adults nationwide. The weights range from 0.04 to 6.0, with a mean of 1 and a standard
deviation of 1.0.
1,798 respondents were recontacted to complete a follow-up survey after the federal indictment
of Donald Trump was unsealed. A recontact weight is applied by age, gender, race, education,
2020 vote, party identification, and 2024 primary intent. The recontact weights range from 0.05
to 6.4, with a mean of 1 and a standard deviation of 1.0.
The margin of error (a 95% confidence interval) for a sample percentage p based upon the entire
sample is approximately 2.7% and 3.3% for the recontacted sample. The margin of error is
calculated using the formula s
1 + CV2
p̂ ± 100 ⇥
n
where CV is the coefficient of variation of the sample weights and n is the sample size used
to compute the proportion. This is a measure of sampling error (the average of all estimates
obtained using the same sample selection and weighting procedures repeatedly). The sample
estimate should di↵er from its expected value by less than margin of error in 95 percent of
all samples. It does not reflect non-sampling errors, including potential selection bias in panel
participation or in response to a particular survey.
