1 Jhe êtar-tlcbgcr/eaglet0n POLL EMBARGOED NOT FOR RELEASE UNTIL: WEDNESDA V OCTOBER 23, 1996 RELEASE: SL/EP 59-I (EP 109-I) CONTACT: JANICE BALLOU (908) , Ext. 240 The Star-Ledger/Eagleton Poll web address: -eaglepol A stor based on the survey findings presented in this release and background memo will appear in Wednesda s Srw-Leager. We ask users to properly attribute this copyrighted information to The Scar LedterEagleton Poll. In this release The Star-Ledger/Eaaleton Poll includes a classification of likely voters that is based on how firmly they support a candidate. A firm voter is one who selects a candidate and says they are very sure about their choice and will not change their mind before the election. Not firm voters are those who select a candidate and say they might change their mind or who are initially undecided. Traditionally, election studies have grouped voters who lean toward a candidate with those who are undecided. Voters who are firm in their choice of candidate or those who say they might change have been allocated to a specific candidate. A 993 Eagleton post-election study showed that this traditional classification under-represents the larger group of voters who might change their minds prior to. or even on, Election Day. All of the percentages in this release are based on New Jersey residents who report they are currently registered to vote NEW JERSEY ELECTIONS CLINTON CONTINUES TO LEAD DOLE; RECOGNITION OF SENATE CANDIDATES INCREASES With about two weeks until Election Day. there are still about 1-in-4 registered New Jersey voters who are deciding on their choice for President. Among registered New Jersey voters who say they will not change their minds before Election Day, Clinton is ahead of Dole by a margin of 47 to 23 percent which is a slight increase for Clinton since September and about the same support for Dole. When voters who have made a choice but might change their mind before Election Day are included. Clinton leads Dole 55 to 28 percent. However, in a foreshadowing of the potential volatility of New Jersey s uncommitted voters there was some shifting of support before and after the October 16 debate. Among the 403 voters interviewed before the debate, Doles support among the voters who made a choice was 31 percent and Clinton was at 50 percent. However, in the interviews conducted following the debate. Dole had support from 25 percent of the voters and Clinton s support was at 59 percent. - more - RIJTt5EI?.S Eog$eton Institute of Politics New brunswick New Jersey

However, by a margin of 26 to8 percent more voters who saw the first debate said they had a less favorable opinion of Bob Dole than felt this way about Bill Clinton. After the second debate, slightly more voters said they had less favorable views of both candidates. However, by a margin of 36 to 14 percent an even larger percentage of voters who had viewed the second debate said their impressions of Bob Dole became less favorable than said the same about Bill Clinton. THE SENA TE RACE There has been a major increase in the recognition of the candidates for the U.S. Senate. Currently. about 4-in-lO of the voters can name Congressman Dick Zimmer and Congressman Bob Torricelli as the U.S. Senate candidates.
