Poll Suggests Floridians Are Dissatisfied with President’s Policies and Card Check
Legislation; Concerned About Job Creation and the Economy
TALLAHASSEE – Concern for job creation and overall disappointment in various policies supported by President Obama were top sentiments expressed in a recent poll released by the Associated Industries of Florida. More than half of Florida voters (53 percent) oppose President Obama’s health care plan and an overwhelming 75 percent fear a rise in taxes and an increase in national debt as a result of the federal health care reform proposal and stimulus packages.
Almost two years since the election of President Obama, the number of respondents who prefer Republican Congressional representation to provide a check and balance on the President rose to more than half (52 percent), increasing four percentage points from last year. Among the groups responding, 55 percent of Independents prefer Republican representation, as well as 53 percent of Ticketsplitters.
