According to a national telephone poll of voters (not “adults” as is the case with some other polls), 56% are opposed to the health care proposals while 41 % are in favor, according to Rasmussen Reports. The strongest nay-sayers are seniors:
Senior citizens are less supportive of the plan than younger voters. In the latest survey, just 33% of seniors favor the plan while 59% are opposed. The intensity gap among seniors is significant. Only 16% of the over-65 crowd Strongly Favors the legislation while 46% are Strongly Opposed.
