Questions and instructions

Question pretext

I am going to read you some brief descriptions of people and their situations. I would like you to listen to the descriptions and tell me how much say these
people have in getting their government to address issues of importance to each person.
For each vignette ask:
How much say [does] [name of person] have in getting the government to address issues that interest [him/her]?
Please circle one option per vignette.

Literal question

[Toshiro] lacks clean drinking water. There is a group of local leaders
who could do something about the problem, but they have said that
industrial development is the most important policy right now instead of
clean water.
