This subgroup was also asked about different organizations that affect politics. All respondents were asked items on Reagan's job performance, whether Reagan would win in 1984 and whether they would vote Democratic in November. Demographic information was also collected. In the last part of this collection, the April survey, respondents were asked about their telephone service, costs and usage. In addition, items were asked concerning Ed Meese's nomination for Attorney General, whether the Reagan administration is free from scandal, and opinions concerning the nomination process for the Presidential election in November.
