Sources

Verification note. Wording and percentages transcribed from PollingReport.com; CNN/SSRS primary topline not retrieved, so MoE and weighting unconfirmed. || Verbatim wording, total and party breaks read from PollingReport.com's transcription of the CNN/SSRS release. Mode is stated in later CNN/SSRS toplines, which note that results from the August 3-6, 2017 survey through the April 21-26, 2021 survey are from SSRS telephone-only polls. Original CNN topline PDF not located. || Question wording, sample description, MoE and full party crosstab read directly from the archived PollingReport LGBT page, which transcribes the CNN/SSRS topline.
