Order of Republican Senate candidate in Post Thermometers D1g-D1n --------------------------------------------------------------------- D1g-D1n were randomly administered as the 7th-12th names. On 11/16/00 it was discovered that the survey instrument program had an error in setting randomization. Interviews --or, for some interviews administered over several days, portions of interviews --that were conducted prior to the correction of this error (in the 2nd VQ released on 11/16/00) were not administered with correctly functioning randomization. All cases administered prior to the correction of this error were administered as if only one choice in the randomization were available (in almost all cases, an identical choice). Item Post-Summary.24 (V000262) can be used to identify such cases; for these cases, their unrandomized order is represented here. Codes 7-12 and: 00. Inap, no Post interview 99.
