Do you recall the House candidate from your own party, the other party, or both?

Recalled House candidate from own or other party · Asked in 14 waves, 1970–2000 · 21,036 responses · weighted estimates computed from individual responses

Codes that include 'no Pre/Post IW' were dropped for respondents without that interview. Dropped as not asked: 9 'Washington D.C.; short form (1992); NA if R recalls any candidate names; R has no major party partisanship or NA if has major party partisanship'. Codebook notes: GENERAL NOTE: Built from VCF0301 and VCF1009. This variable has been created from R’s party ID (VCF0301) and from House recall summary VCF1009. The respondent has been considered a partisan if R was ‘strong’, ‘weak’ or ‘leaning’. If R has no major party candidate recall AND has no major party partisanship, then R is coded 9, not 4.
