Modes: Text message invitation to a self-administered web survey. Languages: English.
Interviews completed September 4, 2026 to September 9, 2026.
n = 1,412 completed interviews; 161,643 sampled voters were sent a text invitation; margin of error ±3.3 percentage points at 95% confidence including a design effect of 1.58.
Weighting: bounded raking (iterative proportional fitting within fixed weight limits) to party registration (democrat 61.5%, no_party 38.5%); gender (F 57.0%, M 42.7%, U 0.2%); age group (65+ 46.2%, 18-29 5.0%, 30-44 17.0%, 45-54 12.4%, 55-64 19.4%); congressional district (RI-01 48.2%, RI-02 51.8%); race and ethnicity (voter-file model) (api 2.6%, black 2.7%, other 2.6%, white 80.2%, hispanic 11.9%), from Model D weights completed interviews to a Rhode Island Democratic-primary electorate. L2 2018 Democratic-primary turnout supplies party registration, gender, and the Black and Hispanic shares. Census citizen voting-age benchmarks allocate L2 unclassified race records across the remaining race categories. The frozen Pollster turnout model supplies age and congressional-district shares. Respondent self-identification is used when answered, with voter-file or modeled values only as fallback when unanswered. All race and ethnicity targets total 100%. Post-election calibration correction: bounded raking fits the same target shares within the same weight bounds. Original pre-election Model D remains separately preserved; this reanalysis is not a pre-election forecast; base weights are the inverse of each sampled voter's recorded selection probability within the stratified draw; weights trimmed to 0.25-4.0.
Processing: completed interviews only; partial interviews are excluded. Quality checks flagged 175 duplicate submissions. 143 estimate(s) reported, 9 withheld under the reporting rules.
Limitations: The margin of error (3.3 points at 95% confidence, including the design effect) describes sampling error for a result near 50% among all respondents. Results for subgroups carry larger margins, and question wording, coverage and nonresponse can also affect results. The sponsor is a political committee (a super PAC). Readers should weigh results with that sponsorship in mind. Respondents could be reached only through a telephone number matched to their voter record; voters without a usable number were outside the sample frame. Respondents answered online; people unable or unwilling to complete a web survey are represented only through weighting. 53 respondent(s) had no recorded age group and were not adjusted on that variable. 117 respondent(s) had no recorded race and ethnicity (voter-file model) and were not adjusted on that variable. 9 estimate(s) did not meet the reporting rules (for example, too few respondents) and are withheld.
