Wording notes: bundles transgender people with gay, lesbian and bisexual people in one item | three policy domains combined in one question (jobs, public accommodations, housing)
neutral — symmetric favor/oppose scale, no loaded terms; the design limitation is that it is double-barreled across three policy domains and four identity groups, so transgender-specific support cannot be isolated
how much LGBTQ rights would drive a vote for major political office (LGBTQ-general item, not transgender-specific)
Q12. Thinking about how the following issues might affect your vote for major political offices, would you:
LGBTQ rights
Consider a candidate's position on this issue as just one of many important factors
38%
Not see this as a major issue
33%
Only vote for a candidate who shares your views on this issue
26%
Skipped/Refused
4%
Wording notes: names 'LGBTQ rights' as a bloc rather than any transgender-specific policy | does not distinguish salience for supporters from salience for opponents
unclear — the item measures intensity without direction, so a high 'only vote for a candidate who shares your views' share can be driven by either pro- or anti-LGBTQ respondents; PRRI does not publish a directional split on the face of the topline
