Dat a E dito r with sample results
You can see the sampling results i n the newly created dataset. Five new variables were saved to
the working file, representing the inclusion probabilities and cumulative sampling weights for
each stage, plus the final sampling weights. Voters who were not selected to the sample are
excluded from this dataset.
The final sampling weights are identical for voters within the same n eighborhood because they
are selected according to a simple random sampling method within neighborhoods. However, they
are different across neighborhoods within the same township because the sampled proportions are
not exactly 20% in all neighborhoods.
