Codes that include 'no Pre/Post IW' were dropped for respondents without that interview. Dropped as not asked: 0 'No Senate race in state'; 9 'Abbrev. telephone IW (1984); Washington D.C.; NA if remembers any names (9 in VCF9063)'. Codebook notes: 1974 NOTE: 1974 data are not coded comparably. 1978 NOTE: NA in code 9 also includes ‘NA name, DK party.’ 1992 NOTE: In California in 1992, in addition to the regular Senate election a second ‘special’ Senate election was held and 4 –rather than 3 – Senate recall mentions were coded for CA only in the original data. For 1992 CA cases, CDF vars VCF9064-9066 are coded only for mentions which are not mentions of ‘special’ election candidates (not candidate ‘93’ nor ‘94’ in the original study data). If a 1992 California respondent has recall but R’s ONLY mention(s) refer to the special election candidates, then 8 has been coded in VCF9064-9066 [98 in VCF9067].
