"A polling sample of randomly selected adult (18 years of age or older)
Republican likely voters was drawn from the Florida Division of
Elections’ voter file. Likely voters are classified as voters who cast a
ballot in at least 70 percent of recent elections in which they were
eligible to vote (since 2008 general and primary elections)....Calls were made from 5 to 9
p.m. nightly from Thursday, Oct. 8 through Tuesday, Oct. 13, and
included 641 adult registered Republican likely voters in Florida, with a
margin of sampling error of +/- 3.87 percent. Race, age and gender were
weighted to reflect the adult registered Republican likely voter
population in Florida."...

==================
Comment: Two poll questions included results by race but only whites and Hispanics, and with a sample of only 122 Hispanics. The margin of error on the small Hispanic sample size wasn't stated. Small sample sizes often mean much higher margins of error, ie, it likely wouldn't be the same as on 641 voters stated above as 3.87. Also, the poll apparently didn't include African Americans. Per 2014 Florida Census: 77.8 white, 16.8 African American, 24.1 Hispanic.
