46% Favor A Health Care Exchange in Their State, 35% Don’t
Thursday, December 13, 2012
Nearly half of all voters want their state to set up its own health care exchange to help implement President Obama’s national health care law. Roughly half the states, however, have already chosen not to do so. In those states, voters are evenly divided.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 46% of Likely U.S. Voters want their governor to support the implementation of the health care law in their state. But nearly as many (42%) want their governor to oppose the law’s implementation. Twelve percent (12%) are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
The survey of 1,000 Likely Voters was conducted on December 10-11, 2012 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC. See methodology.
