Weight variable VCF0010/VCF0010A/VCF0010B must be used if distributions including 1970 data are desired: see VCF0010. Note that use of VCF0010/VCF0010A/VCF0010B as a weight reduces the 1970 total N for this variable: form 2 whites who should appear as code 0 INAP cases are excluded from the 1970 total N. In 1996, the order of parties read in the question text was randomized. 1. Better by Democrats 2. Same by both 3. Better by Republicans 9. DK; depends (1972) 0.
