     DESCRIPTION:
     The 1990 Bias file, part of the 1990 National Election Study, contains
     respondent-level field administration variables.  Of 3440 lines of sample that
     were originally issued for the 1990 Study, 1990 resulted in completed
     interviews*, others were non-sample, and others were non-interviews for a
     variety of reasons.  For each line of sample, the Bias file includes sampling
     data, result codes, control variables, and interviewer variables.  Detailed
     geocode data are blanked but available under conditions of confidential access
     (contact NES for further details).
