Who Will Win Presidential Election?  Three in five New Hampshire likely voters (60%) think that Hillary Clinton will win the presidential election, while just 25% think Trump will win, and 16% are unsure. While nearly all Clinton voters (92%) believe that she will win, only 62% of Trump voters think he will win. This measure of electoral races has been shown to be a more accurate predictor of the winner than “horse race” questions, but not necessarily the margin of victory. 

 2016 US Senate Election 

 The race for U.S. Senator from New Hampshire is likely one of the most expensive races in the country and most voters have decided whom they will vote for. Three in four likely voters (76%) say they have definitely decided whom they will vote for, 7% are leaning toward a candidate, and 17% are still trying to decide.

Granite State Poll Methodology These findings are based on the latest Granite State Poll, conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center. Seven hundred and seven (707) randomly selected New Hampshire likely voters were interviewed by landline and cellular telephone between November 3 and November 6, 2016. If a household included more than one adult, the adult who had the most recent birthday was selected to be interviewed.    The margin of sampling error for the survey is +/‐ 3.7 percent. These MSE’s have not been adjusted for design effect. The design effect for the survey is 1.1%.   The random sample used in the Granite State Poll was purchased from Marketing Systems Group (MSG), Horsham, PA. MSG screens each selected telephone number to eliminate non‐working numbers, disconnected numbers, and business numbers to improve the efficiency of the sample, reducing the amount of time interviewers spend calling non‐usable numbers.  The data have been weighted to adjust for numbers of adults and telephone lines within households. Additionally, data were weighted by respondent sex, age, and region of the state to targets from the most recent American Community Survey (ACS) conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau. In addition to potential sampling error, all surveys have other potential sources of non‐sampling error including question order effects, question wording effects, and non‐response. Due to rounding, percentages may not sum to 100%. The number of respondents in each demographic below may not equal the number reported in cross‐tabulation tables as some respondents choose not to answer some questions.  For more information about the methodology used in the Granite State Poll, contact Dr. Andrew Smith at (603) 862‐2226 or by email at [email protected].
