1. About the Poll The Washington Poll is a non-partisan, academic survey research project sponsored by the Washington Institute for the Study of Ethnicity & Race (WISER), a research center at the University of Washington in the School of Social Sciences. Dr. Gary Segura, a professor of Political Science is the Director of WISER and a co-principal investigator on this survey with Dr. Matt Barreto, also a professor of Political Science. The survey was administered by telephone, by Pacific Market Research, in Renton, WA, based on a randomly selected list of phone numbers using a list of registered voters. The survey was in the field from October 22 – 28, 2007. A total of 601 registered voters throughout the state of Washington were interviewed, yielding in a 4.0% margin of error. Percentages may not add up to 100% due to rounding. Additional results and cross-tabulations will be released each day, so please check back for updates.

10. Now let’s talk about some candidates running for President. I'll read a candidate's name and ask you to rate each one on a thermometer that runs from 0 to 100 degrees. Ratings between 50 and 100 mean that you feel favorable toward that person, with 100 being most favorable. Ratings between 0 and 50 mean that you feel unfavorable toward that person. You may use any number from 0 to 100 to tell me how you feel. Presidential Candidate Avg. Ratings

11. Presidential Candidate Warm/Cool Ratings Using the same 0 – 100 Feeling Thermometer, this chart displays what percentage of Washington voters rate a candidate “warm” versus “cool.” Warm means that voters rated the candidate 51 or higher, and Cool means that voters rated the candidate 49 or lower. **Warm—Respondents who rated candidate greater than 50 **Cool—Respondents who rated candidate less than 50 Warm Cool
