These data are also strongly supported in all voting districts by a previous survey of Town voters on
election day November 2011. This survey was not a random sample, but consisted of voters who were
asked to fill out the survey anonymously outside of all polling places in Lansing.There is no estimate of
margin of error, since it was not a random sample.
Question 3 of that survey was:
Do you oppose gas drilling using HVHF (high volume hydrofracking) and would like to see it banned
from the town? 916- town residents completed the survey (45%of voters that day, 14%of all
registered voters).
