Methodology:
Opiniones Latinas conducted individual statewide surveys among likely November 2024 general election Hispanic voters in seven battleground states across the country from September 17 – 22, 2024, with sample sizes ranging between 300 and 400 interviews per state.
A multi-modal approach was employed via live telephone calls and self-administered text messages in both English and Spanish. The live telephone interviews were conducted by professional bilingual interviewers with respondents contacted by both landline phone and cell phone. The text message respondents were sent a personalized invitation to complete the survey on a secure online platform. Interview selection was random, and interviews were stratified by area, race/ethnicity, age, gender, and vote history to correlate with actual voter turnout from previous general elections.
The individual statewide surveys were then combined and weighted together to reflect the actual Hispanic turnout in the 2020 Presidential Exit Polls. The cumulative summary of the combined data totals 2,200 interviews and has an accuracy of +/-2.1%. The error margin increases for cross-tabulations. Totals may not add up to exactly 100% due to rounding and refusals.
