       Order of Independent Incumbent House candidate in Post
       Thermometers D1g-D1n
       ---------------------------------------------------------------------

       This var represents candidates in VT01 and VA05.
       D1g-D1n were randomly administered as the 7th-12th names.

       On 11/16/00 it was discovered that the survey instrument
       program had an error in setting randomization.  Interviews
       --or, for some interviews administered over several days,
       portions of interviews --that were conducted prior to the
       correction of this error (in the 2nd VQ released on 11/16/00)
       were not administered with correctly functioning randomization.
       All cases administered prior to the correction of this error
       were administered as if only one choice in the randomization
       were available (in almost all cases, an identical choice).
       Item Post-Summary.24 (V000262) can be used to identify such
       cases; for these cases, their unrandomized order is represented
       here.

       Codes 7-12 and:

       00. Inap, no Post interview
       99. NA; INAP, no independent incumbent House candidate
