The first horse-race question we polled about was a non-biased and we gave no background information about each candidate. We simply asked who they (they being the people we polled) would vote for, based on party. Brennan Lee (D)? Ryan Bouabid (R)? Or Aspen Miller (I)? This question was asked in the first week of the mock election and many people were unaware of the policies each candidate was proposing. This poll was also taken from the smallest sample of all the polls we took.
After asking the horse-race question we asked the people whether or not they were in favor of George Bush's No Child Left Behind Act. We weren't terribly biased, but did provide background information on the Act, which included all of the laws in it (aka what the schools were required to do) and included numbers/ facts about the aftermath of this Act being put into place.
