Demos And G.O.P. Close Match In 1940 Party Strength
A state by state preview by the American Institute of Public Opinion shows Democrats and Republicans closely matched in the 1940 race. South Dakota favors Democrats 43 to 57 while New York and Minnesota could swing the election with small shifts. The poll notes that party strength, not candidates, shapes the early stage and war in Europe may influence voters before conventions.

Open Forum on Page Laments and Defense by Voltaire
A garbled quotation from Voltaire appears in an open forum item. The readable text hints at a defense of a stance and a caution to speak plainly. The fragmentary content suggests a discussion about truth and rhetoric without a clear, coherent argument.
Electoral Vote Note by Dr Gallup
The reader should remember that some margin of error may be involved in every sampling operation due to sample size. In the present survey the probability is at least 95 in 199 that the average error per state will not exceed 4 per cent. Previous state surveys show cross section and sample size errors averaging 31 per cent since 1936.

The survey suggests that the Democrat gained strength after the war began and that most voters approve Roosevelt's defense and foreign policy. It cautions that sampling error exists, with per-state average error likely under 5 percent, and notes Institute surveys since 1936 averaged 3.1 percent total error across all surveys.
