New poll: Q1: NO on 1 50%, Yes 41%

by: Gerald Weinand

Tue Sep 29, 2009 at 14:51:23 PM EDT


A new poll from the NO on 1 campaign shows great numbers:

Q.6 Now let me ask something else. One of the questions on the ballot this November will read as follows: "Do you want to reject the new law that lets same-sex couples marry and allows individuals and religious groups to refuse to perform these marriages?" - If the election were held today, would you vote YES or NO on this question?

Yes strongly: 37
Yes not strongly: 4
No not strongly: 7
No strongly: 43
(Don't know/refused):9

Total yes: 41
Total no: 50

The complete poll can be found here. There are some points of interest, especially that nearly half (48%) identify themselves as being aged over 50, and that 65% of respondents said that they do not have children under 18 years old living at home with them.

You can help keep this momentum going by volunteering or donating to NO on 1 here.

I've added it to the diary - didn't have (0.00 / 0)
one until recently.

CD's? (0.00 / 0)
I don't see a breakdown by CD on this one. Was this statewide?

Cheers and Jeers (0.00 / 0)
You fans of Cheers and Jeers, a daily post by Portland's own Bill Harnsberger at Daily Kos, will want to be sure to be first on to his piece tomorrow.

He's let me see the draft, and it is good.

Dial in around 8:15 a.m. EST/


You were right... (0.00 / 0)

I loved that Cheers and Jeers piece... I found this especially apt and downright funny:

Especially the state's Catholic hierarchy, which is fully participating in and endorsing the litany of lies that runs the length of my arm (which, due to an accident at a taffy-pulling plant, is six feet long). And they accuse us of setting a poor example for our state's kids?


When asked what he thought of western civilization, Gandhi replied, "I think it would be a good idea."

The demographics (0.00 / 0)
make this poll look just a little bit Democratic and a little bit female, both of which are strong subpopulations for the No on 1 side.  Could be balanced out by the older age group, though, as you point out.

I like the numbers, but don't want to get overly optimistic.  Do you have an idea what the margin of error was for this?


No, I don't. I haven't seen the cross-tabs n/t (0.00 / 0)

I just looked it up and answered my own question.:)
