Codes that include 'no Pre/Post IW' were dropped for respondents without that interview. Dropped only in years where the codebook names a design split (alternate form, half sample, abbreviated or web instrument): 0 in 1972. Kept and flagged: 0 (other_missing). Codebook notes: This is a pre-election var. See VCF0737 for post-election registration question. GENERAL NOTE: Code 2 includes cases coded ‘yes, qualified, I think so’ from 1956, 1960 and 1964. From 1980, code 0 includes 1 response that voters were not required to register in respondent’s state (this case was coded 1 in VCF0703). Beginning in 2012, respondents were asked where they were registered in both the Pre and Post. Summary registration status for these years can be found in VCF0703.
