| A new poll out from Pan Atlantic SMS Group shows that of likely voters surveyed across Maine, 51.8% would vote no on Question 1, the effort to overturn our equal marriage law.
When asked:
Question 1 - "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 today was Election Day, how would you vote on this issue?
40.9% would vote YES
2.0% lean YES
50.6% would vote NO
1.2% lean NO
5.2% are undecided
More voters in the 2nd Congressional District would vote YES (51.8%), while fewer in the 1st Congressional District would vote YES (34.2%). While 64.3% of Republicans would vote YES, only 24.2% of Democrats would, with a surprising 42.6% of Independents saying they would vote YES.
And of Catholics surveyed, 50.0% responded that they would vote YES, while 42.7% would vote NO, with 7.3% undecided.
There is still three weeks to go, and while these numbers are great news, it is important to kep the foot on the gas all the way until 3 November. |
