Abstract
The University of New Orleans Survey Research Center (SRC) conducted a live interviewer telephone poll of likely voters in Orleans Parish. A total of 409 randomly selected respondents were interviewed between September 20th and September 24th.
A likely voter was defined as an individual who voted in at least four of the last ten elections where turnout was above 10 percent. 1 In addition, individuals who voted in three of the last ten elections and participated in the 2021 mayoral election were included in the sampling frame. The combined landline and cell phone sample was weighted to reflect the gender, age, race, and council district parameters of the voter file obtained from the Louisiana Secretary of State. The margin of error is +/- 4.8 percent at a 95% level of confidence.
