2006 ANES Pilot Study Questionnaire
(Post-election telephone)

2007-Jan-17: Original Version
2007-Jul-18: Revision

Revisions:
JULY 18: Mod9_4 fill changed to include: December 9-January 7='November'; Mod15_9 selection criteria changed from "Likes" to "Dislikes".

Printing Help: While the default settings will work on most browsers, when printing the 2006 Pilot questionnaire from your browser, you may need to change your browser's page settings (for example, in Microsoft Explorer, File-->Page Setup). The questionnaire prints best if your page orientation is set to portrait, with small left/right margins such as .5 left and .2 right. Setting small top and bottom margins (such as .5 top and .3 bottom) will reduce somewhat the number of printed pages but is not a necessary setting.
