Voters in Wisconsin strongly agree with the working families at the state capitol and oppose Governor Scott Walker’s anti-worker agenda. Moreover, since the protests began, Governor Walker has seen real erosion in his standing, with a majority expressing disapproval of his job performance and disagreement with his agenda. Strong majorities disagree with eliminating collective bargaining for public employees and believe that if workers agree to concessions on pensions and healthcare benefits that the Governor should drop his plan to eliminate collective bargaining. Walker’s Standing is Poor, while Most Agree with the Unions and Public Employees Overall, a majority (51 percent) of Wisconsin voters disapprove of Walker’s job performance and give him net negative favorability ratings (39 percent favorable, 49 percent unfavorable). In contrast, 62 percent of voters offer a favorable view of public employees (only 11 percent unfavorable) and 53 percent of voters rate labor unions favorably (31 percent unfavorable). When asked if they agree or disagree with the position different groups and individuals are taking in the current situation, voters side with the public employees (67 percent agree), the protesters (62 percent agree), the unions (59 percent agree), and the Democrats in the state legislature (56 percent agree). In contrast, 53 percent disagree with Walker and 46 percent disagree with the Republicans in the legislature.

Rasmussen Poll: American Voters Support Wisconsin GOP Gov. Walker Over Unions by a 48% to 38% Margin Americans siding with Governor Walker over unions in Wisconsin … According to a recent Rasmuss Poll, likely voters are siding with Governor Scott Walker over the Unions in Wisconsin by a 48% to 38% margin. Only 38% sided with the unions, which is a far cry from the image that the MSM is trying to show protesting in Madison, WI. Obviously Democrats are going to support the unions and did so in this survey with 68% of the vote, while Republicans, while 68% of Republicans sided with the governor. More importantly and telling, 58% of individuals not affiliated with either parity sided with Governor Walker. The winds of change are occuring in Wisconsin. A sizable number of voters are following new Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker’s showdown with unionized public employees in his state, and nearly half side with the governor. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 48% of Likely U.S. Voters agree more with the Republican governor in his dispute with union workers. Thirty-eight percent (38%) agree more with the unionized public employees, while 14% are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.) As stated by Hot Air, the unions appear to be losing the national battle for the hearts and minds of the American people. We the People seem to be growing weary of union entitlements while private citizens must make sacrifices every day.
In dead Che's wet dreams.
I call liberal Skip Intro bullshit. 48% Back GOP Governor in Wisconsin Spat, 38% Side With Unions www.rasmussenreports.com/..._spat_38_side_with_unions
It's just a poll, you moron. You don't agree with it, who gives a shit? I didn't make it up.
The poll in the article is of Wisconsin. Rassmussen is of the US and his polls are the least accurate ones going.
Mammy and Stone have the same reading disability.
Who is going to "win"? Also for the record I think people have a right to protest. They have a right to form unions. But they do not have the right to force everyone into a union who doesn't want to become a member. Even if they vote for it they shouldn't be allowed to force people who don't want to be a member to be one. Those who want to be one have every right to. That doesn't mean the government has to listen to their demands. Also Virginia doesn't have union representation for government workers. And the liberal god FDR was against public sector unions. Unions do have a purpose and I understand that. But they have abused their people and cost lots of Americans jobs.
If you can call her mammy, i'm going to start calling you the Obama wiener slurper.
I didn't make it up. You went looking for a poll like that in my opinion.
lol
No, I found it in the Washington Post. If I wanted to look for something made up I'd go to World Net Daily or Breitbart. Do you think it's wrong?
It seems to me that people here call me all kinds of things. You going to go after them, too?
Do you think it's wrong? I think both polls are probably right. Like you said it's just a poll. I can see both sides of the issue and don't take a hard stand on the side I tilt towards.
I do want to change the tone a bit here. Instead of so many name calling more debating would be better. Can we agree on that. Honestly I haven't noticed much name calling towards you. I probably just missed it. Not saying you are lying. Also I shouldn't have said what I said I would call you.
Yes he did, we all do it... I know when I went looking for a Poll I could trust, they every damn one called themselves "The Most Trusted"...aha I just posted mine as a second opinion....
You'd be lying, He wouldn't be.
The bottom line is you cannot renege on a promise. That is what Walker is doing. The rest of it us up to the people of Wisconsin.
Truth is you're a swallower, dwarf.
53 percent disagree with Walker
