Methodology
❖ Online interviews were conducted among registered Democrats as follows:
– 1,380 interviewed; 1,217 interviewed in-depth about the postcards*
– Six groups of ~200 respondents, each exposed to two versions of the postcard
– Quotas were set so each group of ~200 had readable bases of respondents by
gender, age, and region
❖ After exposure to one of the postcard versions, respondents were asked:
– Thoughts and feelings
– What would do with the postcard (read/skim/throw away/keep/share)
– Impact on likelihood to take action (pay attention to election, vote etc.)
– Likes/dislikes
❖ Following individual postcard evaluations, respondents were exposed to a second
version and asked their preference and reasons for preference
❖ Interviewing was conducted May 14-24, 2019
❖ Results have been tested for differences at the 90% confidence level and noted with
an A, B, C, D, E, F indicating as follows:
A. Significantly greater than Base
B. Significantly greater than Volunteer
C. Significantly greater than With Name
D. Significantly greater than Decorated
