Actually no, Raghu. If you look more closely at the third chart, you’ll note that only 35% of “independents”, together with a mere 18% of Republicans “want unions to have more influence”. Among Democrats, that percentage rises to 55%, no great shakes, but at least still a majority. According to the poll, independents still narrowly “approve” of unions (52%), unlike most Republicans. _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
