This memo summarizes the key findings from a poll of 301 likely Republican primary voters in Illinois 16th Congressional District conducted February 6-7, 2012.

Methodology
On behalf of the Campaign for Primary Accountability, Wilson Perkins Allen Opinion Research conducted a research study of likely Republican primary voters in Illinois 16th Congressional District. Respondents were screened to ensure that they were neither a member of the news media nor a public relations company. The sample for this survey was stratified based on gender, age, and geography. This methodology allows us to minimize post-survey weighting which can reduce the reliability of survey results. Respondents were contacted by phone via a live telephone operator interview February 6-7, 2011. The study has a sample size of 301 likely Republican primary voters with a margin of error of 5.7%.
