Mainecat Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Quinnipiac 2/23 - Republicans Out Of Step With U.S. Voters On Key Issues Voters support 54 - 38 percent "renegotiating major trade deals with other countries, even if it means paying more for the products you buy" and support 87 - 10 percent increasing federal spending for roads, mass transit and other infrastructure, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh- pe-ack) University Poll finds. But American voters oppose other measures: 62 - 31 percent against reducing taxes across the board, even if it increases the deficit; 51 - 38 percent against restarting the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines; 60 - 37 percent against building the wall on the Mexican border, with 65 - 33 percent against the wall if the U.S. must pay for it; 76 - 18 percent against lowering taxes on the wealthy; 50 - 43 percent against lowering taxes on businesses and corporations; 54 - 34 percent against removing regulations on businesses and corporations; 63 - 27 percent against removing specific regulations intended to combat climate change; 54 - 43 percent against repealing the Affordable Care Act.https://poll.qu.edu/national/release-detail?ReleaseID=2432 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just 28% oppose it, while 15% say they are unsure. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 51% of Likely U.S. Voters now favor building the major oil pipeline from Canada to Texas, while 43% are opposed.

Edmo Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) It's so easy to manipulate these poll results to say anything you want them to. I don't believe any of it. Rubbish... Edited February 24, 2017 by Edmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubbish... Yeah, but the democrats need something to try and keep their points relevant. The fact that they don't hold a majority means nothing to them.
