  • Polling a Third Party Challenger: Fact Or Artifact? Peter J Woolley, Dan Cassino
    Articles Polling a Third Party Challenger: Fact or Artifact? Peter J Woolley, Dan Cassino Tags: survey practice Survey Practice Vol. 3, Issue 4, 2010 Polling a Third Party Challenger: Fact or Artifact? Giving equal place to a third party or independent challenger may over-estimate his or her support by putting that candidate on an equal footing with much better known major party nominees. On the other hand, not reading the name of what might be a significant third party challenger may unfairly prejudice respondents in favor of the major party candidates and underestimate the third party challenger. We employed several methods to measure New Jersey voters’ preferences in New Jersey’s 2009 gubernatorial election, in which an independent challenger qualified for public campaign funds. While conventional wisdom suggested that the challenger’s popularity quickly grew to as much as 20 percent before fading, evidence suggests otherwise: that the apparent popularity of the third party challenger was no more than an artifact of question construction. When Christopher Daggett raised enough campaign money in his bid for the governor’s office to qualify for public matching funds from the state of New Jersey, it was unusual, but it was an unusual year all around. The Democratic incumbent, John Corzine, was unpopular, dragged down by frustration with the economy, property taxes, and massive structural deficits. His Republican challenger, Chris Christie, was a Bush Administration appointee who admitted having received his post because of his success as a fundraiser for Bush in 2000, in a state where Bush concluded his presidency with an approval rating of just 21%.
