        (ASKED OF Rs WHO VOTED):
        How about the vote/election for Governor (1952, 1958: here in
        <state>)?  Did you vote for a candidate for Governor?  (IF YES:) Who
        did you vote for?
        Which party was that?

        USE WEIGHT VARIABLE VCF0009/VCF0009A/VCF0009B.

        Ballot card was not used until 1978.  In 1978-1982, 1986 R selected
        name from ballot card.  When R gave a name not on the candidate list,
        MD was coded, and party of vote was undetermined.

        In 1952, 1958, 1964-1968 (no ballot card), when an incorrect name--
        i.e., not on the candidate list--was given with a party association,
        the party given was coded.  When a correct name was given with an
        incorrect party, then the actual party associated with the named
        candidate was coded: "Smith, a Democrat" was coded as a Republican if,
        in fact  (contrary to R's perception) Smith was indeed a Republican.

        In 1970-1976 (no ballot card), R's perception of candidate's party was
        given.  If an incorrect name (not on the candidate list) was given,
        party associated was still coded.  If a given party was not the actual
        party of a correctly named candidate, party as given was still coded.

        In 1952, 1958, 1960 and 1964, this question was coded as a multiple
        response allowing, when applicable, for candidate-at-large mentions
        (2nd response) as well as district choice of candidates (1st
        response).  Second responses were excluded in coding VCF9025.

        If R did not vote AND R's state did not have a gubernatorial race,
        then 0 (not 9) has been coded.

        In 1980, 1982, 1986, 1990:  if there was no race in state of IW BUT it
        was determined that R voted outside of state of IW AND R designated
        his/her vote for governor in the other state, then this variable has
        been coded for the party of R's "outside" vote, not coded 0 MD (no
        race in state).  Before 1980, it was not determined whether R voted
        outside of state of IW, and no information was previously available
        for any votes for governor outside of state of IW.
