Here is a link to the Politicker NY highlighting a poll by Quinnipiac that looked at how New Yorkers feel about Wal-Mart, bike lanes, Last in, first out, and renaming a bridge for Ed Koch. Support for Wal-Mart is strong but Koch does not get much love. UPDATE: An eagle-eyed reader picked up these mistakes in the Observer numbers below:"The Observer screwed up their summary of the results: 59-35 of Dems say bike lanes are GOOD, and 78-16 (63-32 union) say teacher layoffs should NOT be based on seniority."
Wal-Mart
57-36 percent say electeds should allow a Wal-Mart to open here.
68-29 percent say they'd shop there once open.
Last In, First Out
78-16 percent say teacher layoffs should be done based on seniority.
63-32 percent of union households agree.
Bike Lanes
59-35 percent of GOP say bike lanes are bad.
59-35 percent of Dems say bike lanes are bad [number corrected].
56-39 percent of Indys say bike lanes are good.
Koch Bridge
64-24 percent oppose renaming Queensboro bridge after Ed Koch.
The Observer screwed up their summary of the results: 59-35 of Dems say bike lanes are GOOD, and 78-16 (63-32 union) say teacher layoffs should NOT be based on seniority.
ReplyDeleteI think the Quinnipiac people buried their lead here, in any case. What's shocking about this poll is how little faith people have in Bloomberg's ability to deal with the fundamental issues of the budget and the public schools. On some questions even a majority of GOP voters think he's failing.
Costco deserves much more contemplation/consideration than Walmart.
