The °°Replacement Survey" was conducted between the dates of July 7 and July 13, 1980. The questions were posed over the telephone and all responses have been recorded on the tally sheets, copies of which are attached. Only registered voters were contacted. When possible all registered voters within a residence were polled. Due to time constraints the sample was limited to 505 Village residents. A11 residents whose names appeared on the Board of Elections roster of regis- tered voters were called at least once. Many, although not all, of those who were not home when the first call was made were subsequently called back. The following is a summary of the results: =~ Question One Responses: For Busa°s Appointment (104) 20~ Against Busa°s Appointment (280) 56~ Undecided (121) 24$ TOTALS (505) 1000 56~ of all persons polled were against Council appointing VD.nce Busa. As can be seen from the vote total, the feeling was very strong, almost 2-1/2 to 1, that if Mr. Busa is to serve again he should do so by winning in a general election. The results are made even more dramatic if the undecided vote is removed and only those caho voted "yes" or "no°' are considered. Without ~ the undecided vote the sample size is reduced to 384 people and _ the relative percentages become 73~ against Mr. Busa's appointment ~~~.
