Majority Support for Voter ID
Voters in Wisconsin support many of the top priorities from Wisconsin Republicans, whether they know it or not.
The latest Marquette Law School Poll shows broad, and at sometimes overwhelming, support for lower taxes, less spending, school choice, and voter ID.
The poll, which was released yesterday, shows more than three-quarters of the people asked support voter ID.
“Requiring a photo ID to vote is favored by 77% and opposed by 22%,” pollsters wrote Wednesday. “In a dozen polls since 2012, the lowest support for the photo ID requirement was 63% in a poll conducted Oct. 9-12, 2014. When asked last in August 2021, 74% favored photo ID.”
The MU poll also shows overwhelming support for the proposed constitutional amendment that would require voter ID in the state.
Pollsters say 73% of people support the amendment, while just 27% of people who were asked oppose it.
But that’s not the only Republican priority with broad support.
The poll noted that:
The only issue where Wisconsin voters strongly take the Democratic position is on abortion.
Pollsters say “64% of WI voters favor legal abortions in all or most cases, with 36% who say it should be illegal in all or most cases.”
