Temperament to Serve Effectively - Donald Trump (October 2016)

More Likely voters were asked, "Do you think Donald Trump has the temperament to serve effectively as president?" "Likely Voters" were defined as those who indicated that they were either certain to vote in Q3A or have voted in every election in Q3. Ideology is measured on a scale of 1-7, with 1 corresponding to "extremely liberal", 7 corresponding to "extremely conservative, and 4 corresponding to "in the middle." For the purposes of this table, respondents who placed themselves at or between points 1 and 3 on the scale are considered "liberal," respondents who placed themselves at point 4 on the scale are considered "moderate," and respondents who placed themselves at or between points 5 and 7 on the scale are considered conservative.
