The Electoral Commission / The Hansard Society, 2003 An audit of political engagement - supporting notes Technical details • MORI interviewed a representative sample of 2,040 people aged 16+ across the

UK, 1,976 of which were aged 18+ (topline results are based on 18+ sample/data file is based on 16+ sample).

• Interviews were conducted face-to-face, in home, between 11-17 December 2003

in Great Britain and between 6-15 December 2003 in Northern Ireland. • The results of this survey have been weighted to the know profile in the UK. • Where questions were only asked in certain countries this is indicated in the data

file and the percentage is given as a percentage of the total UK sample. • Quotas used were age, sex and working status. • Where results do not sum to 100, this may be due to multiple responses,

computer rounding or the exclusion of don’t knows/not stated. • The survey was conducted for The Electoral Commission and was used as the

basis for the Commission’s first annual Audit of political engagement published in March 2004.

MORI survey – Topline results FINAL – 2 February 2004

• Topline results are based on 1,976 adults aged 18+ across the UK. • Interviews in Great Britain were conducted face-to-face, in home, between 11-17 December 2003. • Interviews in Northern Ireland were conducted face-to-face, in-home between 6-15 December

2003. • Results are based on all respondents unless otherwise stated. • Data are weighted to the profile of the population. • An asterisk (*) indicates a finding of less than 0.5% but greater than zero. • Where percentages do not add up to exactly 100% this may be due to computer rounding, the

exclusion of “don’t knows” or to multiple answers.
