return to list of questions

In political elections, how important is a candidate's position on Cuba in determining your vote - would you say it is very important, moderately important, not very important, or not at all important?

For each question the univariate tabulation is shown first, followed by crosstabulations with age, year left Cuba, born in or outside of Cuba, and registered voter status.

Each tabulation is repeated twice, once with and once without don't know, refuse to answer, and not asked (skipped). In some tables those are indicated by abbreviations .d, .n, and . respectively.
