QUESTION:

1964 AND LATER:
Some people seem to follow (1964: think about) what's going on in
government and public affairs most of the time, whether there's an
election going on or not. Others aren't that interested. Would you say
you follow what's going on in government and public affairs most of the
time, some of the time, only now and then, or hardly at all?
1960, 1962:
We'd also like to know how much attention you pay to what's going on in
politics generally. I mean from day to day, when there isn't any big
election campaign going on, would you say you follow politics very
closely, fairly closely, or not much at all?
