NOTES:
------
SEE VCF0707 (Senate data coded in same manner as House data).
GENERAL NOTE:
1980-later cases administered without Ballot Card presentation include
respondents who had voted outside the state of their sample selection
location. 1980 was the first year that 'outside' voting was identified.
In California in 1992, in Tennessee in 1994, and in Kansas in 1996 the
regular Senate election and a second "special" Senate election were
held.  This variable codes data for the respondent's vote in the
regular Senate election only.  [Note special question wording was not
used for Tennessee in 1994].
2002 NOTE:
For respondents registered in county of interview, the order of 
candidate names was randomized in text read by telephone interviewers.
