Poll Methodology

The CNN poll was conducted via text message with 605 registered voters in the U.S. who said they watched the debate, and the results reflect the views of debate watchers only.

Respondents were recruited ahead of the debate and selected by asking members of the SSRS Opinion Panel, a nationally representative group recruited using probability sampling methods.

The results for the full sample of debate watchers have a margin of error of +/- 5.3 percentage points.

CNN notes in its report that the poll results reflect the views of voters who tuned in to watch the debate only and do not reflect the views of the general public.
