PENNSYLVANIA
Methodology
Interviews were conducted April 18-21, 2020 among a random sample of 803 Pennsylvania
voters contacted on landlines (207) and cellphones (596).
Results based on the full sample have a margin of sampling error of ±3.5 percentage points.
Telephone numbers were randomly selected from a statewide voter file of registered
Pennsylvania voters using a probability proportionate to size method, which means phone
numbers are proportionally representative to the number of voters in all regions across the state.
The Fox News Poll is conducted under the joint direction of Beacon Research (D) (formerly
known as Anderson Robbins Research) and Shaw & Company Research (R).
