Study Design Following the 2000 United States presidential election a team of faculty conducted a mail survey of donors who had contributed to any of eight presidential candidates. These included two Democrats (Bill Bradley and Al Gore), five Republicans (Gary Bauer, George Bush, Bob Dole, Steve Forbes, and John McCain), and Green candidate Ralph Nader. The sample was stratified by candidate; each candidate?s sample included approximately 300 donors sampled from public lists of donors maintained by the Federal Election Commission. Strata for Dole, Nader, and Bush were over-sampled for substantive reasons. No data was collected on modest (<$200) donors for the Forbes campaign as his campaign did not participate in public funding. Note that these samples were ALL drawn from individuals who gave before July 31, 2000. The ten-page survey instrument contained items designed to collect data on donor demographics, on political attributes, attitudes, and activities, on how the donors were solicited, and on how much, how often, and to whom they gave. It was sent directly to sampled donors via first class mail. Each envelope was addressed to a specific donor and included a personalized cover letter explaining the project. All letters were individually signed by hand. Business-reply return envelopes were provided with these materials. Approximately one month after the initial mailing, a follow-up request was sent to all sample members who had not returned a response. The text of the cover letter was changed to reflect a repeat request; otherwise, the contents were identical to the first mailing. One additional mailing was done for all remaining non-respondents, except those in Nader?s stratum . Participants were given the option of responding anonymously to the survey by erasing the unique identifying number written in pencil on their surveys. Eight percent of the total sample chose to respond anonymously, with the highest rates of anonymous respondents from the Bauer (11%) and Forbes (10%) strata, and the lowest rates of anonymous response from the Gore (5%), McCain (6%), and Bush (6%) strata. The three waves were sent over the period from August to November of 2001. Following the 2004 United States presidential election the team sent slightly shorter surveys to every respondent to the 2000 survey who did not respond anonymously. The six-page survey instrument contained items designed to collect data on donor demographics, on political attributes, attitudes, and activities, on how the donors were solicited, and on how much, how often, and to whom they gave. It was sent directly to sampled donors via first class mail. Each envelope was addressed to a specific donor and included a personalized cover letter explaining the project. All letters were individually signed by hand. Business-reply return envelopes were provided with these materials. Approximately two and a half months after the initial mailing, a follow-up request was sent to all sample members who had not returned a response. The text of the cover letter was changed to reflect a repeat request and to more firmly urge participation. Two additional mailing was done for all remaining non-respondents over the next four months. Participants were given the option of responding anonymously to the survey. However, color coded marks were added to envelopes so that we could identify the appropriate strata of each respondent even if their identity was not recorded. If individuals included identifying information on anonymous respondents (e.g. return addresses) we used this only to mark these respondents as having responded, but then deleted all identifying information. At any point in the process if mail was returned with a forwarding address a survey was immediately sent to the new address. However, a number of surveys were returned without forwarding addresses. In between the third and fourth waves we submitted these addresses to a commercial mailing firm that supplied new addresses using data collected by the United States Postal Service. Thereafter four ?special waves? were sent (spaced approximately one month apart) to all addresses that had been located by this commercial firm. Because of anonymous responses, delays in the mail, and some human error some respondents received more than one survey even after having responded. In all cases the survey with the earliest post mark was included in the final dataset. On the cover letter respondents were encouraged to fill out the survey online. Only a few hundred respondents did so, and these individuals are marked in the data. 4. Notes on the Weights Because of the somewhat complex study design the weighting of this data is necessarily more complex than is usual. The website for this study also includes the STATA code used to create the weight variables, and other researchers are encouraged to modify this algorithm (or create their own) for their own research needs. If you develop a new set of weights please contact the research team and they may be added to the data posted on the website as another weighting option. For the 2000-2004 panel survey, four separate weights were created: sma_wt00, larg_wt00, sma_wt04, and. The first, sma_wt00, are probability weights for all of the modest (<$200) donors who responded in the original 2000 wave of the study. The second, larg_wt00, are probability weights for all of the significant (>$200) donors who responded in the original 2000 wave of the study. These weights should be used when using the dataset as a simple cross-sectional survey of donors to the 2000 presidential election. Because modest donors so outnumber significant donors, no pooled weights were deemed necessary. The third, sma_wt04, are probability weights for all of the modest (<$200) donors who responded both to the original 2000 wave of the study AND to the 2004 follow-up survey. The third, larg_wt04, are probability weights for all of the significant (>$200) donors who responded both to the original 2000 wave of the study AND to the 2004 follow-up survey. These weights should be used when using the dataset as a panel study of donors to the 2000 election and their subsequent behavior/attitudes in 2004. Because modest donors so outnumber significant donors, no pooled weights were deemed necessary. The probability weights were designed to represent 1/[Probability of being sampled]. In the final stage, these probability weights are divided by a constant so that they sum to the same size as the overall (relevant) sample. For individuals who reported having only given to one candidate (assuming that the reported candidate is the same as the list from which they were sampled) the weighting was relatively straight forward. Their weights were simply the total number of donors to the candidate (see below for exact numbers) divided by the number of individuals sampled from each sub-strata. For individuals who gave to more than one candidate, the task was somewhat more complex (note: each individual was assumed to have at least given to the candidate from whose list they were sampled, even if the respondent did not indicate that this was the case). After all, these individuals are more likely to have been sampled because they are listed in multiple sub-strata. We therefore calculated these individuals weights in several steps. First, we calculated the probability of not being included in the sample given you had given to a specific candidate. That is, (Population ? Sample)/Population. Second, we calculated the joint probability of not being sampled from *all* of these groups. This is equal to P(Not in sample X)*P(Not in sample Y)*P(Not in sample Z) etc. Finally, one divided by the quantity one minus that joint probability is the appropriate weight. Finally, it is important to note the estimates we used for the overall population sizes, which were based on the best information available to us at the point when we created these weights. MODEST SIGNIFICANT Bauer 52092 6096 Forbes - 4270 Bradley 66125 34743 McCain 115917 26574 Nader 9208 2571 Gore 109504 41413 Buchanan 96169 5578 Bush 110446 105651 Dole 8176 5575 Keyes 76354 4125 The population sizes used to estimate the weights for the modest Dean and Bush populations were drawn from published sources. For Bush we used the estimate 1.3 million. For Dean donors we used the estimate of 985,000. 6.
