21% of voters must be crazy
by Larry Geller
This surprising result just in from Public Policy Polling. Would you believe that 21% of voters polled said the BP oil spill made them more likely to support offshore drilling??
43% now say the spill made them less inclined to support drilling while 36% say it didn't make a difference to them one way or the other. Perhaps most surprisingly 21% of voters said the spill made them more likely to support offshore drilling. That includes an even split among GOP voters, 28% of whom said the spill made them more likely to support drilling and 28% of whom said the spill made them less likely to support drilling.
