VOTERS PREFER CUT, CAP & BALANCE OVER GANG OF 6 DEFICIT PLAN
UTICA, NY - President Barack Obama's standing with voters on his job approval
and re-election prospects have both received positive bumps in the latest IBOPE
Zogby interactive poll.
The poll also finds that pluralities of 47% support both the House-passed "Cut,
Cap and Balance" plan to resolve the debt limit issue, and the "Gang of Six"
plan that has been discussed in the Senate. However, when asked to choose
between the two, voters prefer the House plan.
These results are from an IBOPE Zogby interactive poll conducted from July
22-25.
Overall, do you approve or disapprove of Barack Obama's job as president?
