Verification note. 53% figure, n=840, mid-May fielding and ±3.5 MOE from a Spectrum News summary; the Pan Atlantic release was not retrieved. Exact wording missing. This item is important because it bundles the trans-athlete policy with a funding threat - a distinct framing from the standard should/should-not item. || RESOLVED on the distribution and the party breaks. The Spectrum News Maine article was retrieved in full via curl this session. CONFIRMED: 'The 66th Pan Atlantic Research Omnibus Poll reached 840 likely voters in mid-May and has a 3.5% margin of error', matching the stored n and MoE. RECOVERED - the rest of the distribution, which the previous record lacked: 53 percent say Maine should follow federal guidelines on transgender sports participation to avoid losing education funds, 32 percent say Maine should NOT comply with federal demands, and 14 percent are undecided; by party, 82 percent of Republicans, 52 percent of independents and 32 percent of Democrats say Maine should comply. STILL MISSING: exact field dates (the story says only 'mid-May', so month precision is retained), mode, weighting, and the literal item wording - Pan Atlantic's own omnibus release was not located. The previous note's point stands and is now documented: this item bundles the trans-athlete policy with a federal funding threat, so it is not comparable to a plain should/should-not item.
