VCF9097 Democratic House Candidate: Women's Equal Role Scale

QUESTION:

Recently there has been a lot of talk about women's rights. Some
people feel that women should have an equal role with men in running
business, industry, and government. Others feel that women's place is
in the home.
Where would you place [the Democratic House Candidate] on this scale?
(7-POINT SCALE SHOWN TO R)

     Washington DC)
Inap. question not used

NOTES:

GENERAL NOTE:
Responses responses for independent or "other" candidate are not
included here for districts having only one major party candidate
(opposite party)..
In all years before 1998, if R replied DK or "haven't thought much
about it" in rating self on this same scale, then R was not asked this 
question.
1998 NOTE 1:
Randomization occurred for the order of the 2 major party House 
candidate names for this placement.
1998 NOTE 2:
If R did not recognize the name of the Democratic Candidate for the 
thermometer rating, then this question was not asked.
