title: German Election Study, 1990
title: Version 1

description: This data collection consists of a cumulative file of the Politbarometer surveys of 1990, which queried citizens of West Germany.

Data cover party preference, recent voting behavior, self-placement on a left-right political continuum, opinions about politicians, attitudes toward German unification and the potential consequences of East Germans moving to the Federal Republic (Uebersiedler), opinions about the necessity for a new constitution, preferred election date for the new government, fear of losing one's job, influence of survey results on an individual's voting record and on political attitudes, military intervention in the Persian Gulf region, and religiosity.

title: CBS News/New York Times O.J. Simpson Jury Selection Poll, September 1994
title: Version 1

description: This special topic survey consists of responses to a survey of residents in Los Angeles regarding the O.J. Simpson jury selection process. Respondents were asked whether they received a summons to appear for jury duty at the Los Angeles Superior Court on September 26, 1994, and how closely they followed the news coverage of O.J. Simpson and the murders of his ex-wife Nicole Simpson and Ronald Goldman. Specific questions included whether Simpson could get a fair trial in Los Angeles, whether the respondent had formed any opinions on the case, and whether the respondent, if appointed a juror, would have any difficulty in basing a judgment solely on evidence presented at the trial. Opinions were sought on the prosecution's and defense's strongest piece of information, the Los Angeles Police Department, the Los Angeles District Attorney's office, and the validity of DNA and other scientific testimony. Other topics included opinions on the criminal justice system and police officers in Los Angeles, with specific focus on possible biases against Blacks. Background information includes voter registration status, household composition, vote choice in the 1992 presidential election, political party, political orientation, education, age, sex, race, religious preference, and family income.

Opinions were sought on New York politicians Mario Cuomo, George Pataki, Daniel Moynihan, and Bernadette Castro. Respondents were also asked how they would vote in the upcoming gubernatorial, senate, comptroller, and attorney general races. The survey was carried out on October 26-29, 1994, further into the campaign season than when respondents were queried for CBS NEWS/NEW YORK TIMES NEW YORK STATE POLL #1, OCTOBER 1994 (ICPSR 6610). New subjects covered in this poll included whether the respondent had seen television ads for the various candidates, and whether the recent endorsements by Bill Clinton and Rudolph Giuliani of Mario Cuomo would affect the respondent's voting behavior.

Respondents were asked to identify major problems that faced New York State, whether those problems would get better or worse if Mario Cuomo or George Pataki were elected governor, and whether Cuomo or Pataki cared more about the needs and problems of the people living in New York City, the suburbs around New York City, or people living in upstate New York.

title: Census of State Felony Courts, 1985: [United States]
title: Version 1

description: The purpose of this study was to provide a current listing of all felony courts in this country and to provide a universe from which a sample of courts could be selected based on felony caseload. The study includes information on all state felony courts in the United States, including the number of cases filed and disposed by conviction, acquittal, dismissal, or other means. Court administrators were asked to indicate the manner in which cases filed and disposed were counted, such as by defendant, charge, or indictment information. The total number of cases disposed during the period was also collected for juvenile delinquents and for traffic offenses (moving violations) where applicable. Finally, data were gathered on whether felonies reduced to misdemeanors were included in the felony count and whether lower courts in the jurisdiction accepted guilty pleas to felonies.
