        STATE OF INTERVIEW - ICPSR CODE
        -------------------------------------------------------------------

        USE WEIGHT VARIABLE VCF0009/VCF0009A/VCF0009B.

        See last 2 digits in U.S. codes of ICPSR STATE AND COUNTRY CODES
        appendix.

        IMPORTANT NOTE:  NES samples are not designed to be representative
        at the state level.  Samples include cases from only some U.S.
        states; in many states only a small handful of interviews are taken.

        For 1992 'panel' cases, this provides the state of R's original
        address (when sample selection was made in 1990), rather than the
        state in which R was residing in 1992.

        For 1994 and 1996 'panel' cases who moved since their original
        interview (1994: first interviewed in 1992; 1994: first interviewed in
        1994 or 1992), VCF0900 records the congressional district where R was
        interviewed for the current Study.  The candidate list information
        also corresponds to the district where R was residing during the
        current Study interview.

         2000 Note:  3 cases were misidentified PA in the Preload but should
         have been NJ. These cases are coded 00.

               99. NA
               00. INAP, wrong district identified (2000); question not used
