52% in Wisconsin Support Recall of Governor Walker (Rasmussen)
Rasmussen ^ | April 2, 2012 | Staff

Posted on 04/03/2012 10:21:50 AM PDT by C19fan

A majority of Wisconsin voters now support the effort to recall Republican Governor Scott Walker.

A new Rasmussen Reports statewide survey shows that, if the recall election was held today, 52% of Likely Voters would vote to recall Governor Walker and remove him from office. Forty-seven percent (47%) would vote against the recall and let him continue to serve as governor. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Sad, isn’t it? All the reward is in screwing the country, those who try to save it are screwed. We’ll see.

Margin for error makes it go the other way.

Nobody bothered to ask me or anyone in my family that say to heck with the unions and praise Governor Walker.

I support Governor Walker.

They must held seances when completing the petitions, because the dead surely have been head from.

If they vote to recall Walker, then they are fools.

Along with Mickey Mouse and Hitler—The Rat party determined these to be valid votes.

Read that early this a.m.... Considering how WI was moving away from pro-recall sentiment, this is rather unsettling.... and sad.

It’s analogous to the patient who’s undergoing some challenges with post-surgery therapy, and decides he wants his brain tumor put back.

Well, on the upside though, if Walker does go down, many RTW states will benefit as businesses start fleeing. WI still has to balance its budget, and since they’ll repeal anything pertaining to what Walker stood for, the new state governor and congress will go back to excessive taxation to cover the year-end financial numbers.

Had hope for ya, Wisconsin.... You dump Walker, Kleefisch and those four senators, it’ll be quite clear you prefer kneeling at the feet of the all-power union bosses.

Wonder if this’ll be ready to go national by late Nov.

52% would like to send all business to Indiana.

If Wisconsin does recall Governor Walker, and the time ever comes that Wisconsin asks the Feds for a bailout, I say we tell them to go to hell.

I'm betting they're somehow of the mindset that WI will get a federal bailout to prevent default, once they re-establish their illusory public-sector union good life.

That bailout isn't going to be quite so easy to obtain.

Theolos are not accurate and are being used to influence voters. June 5 we will show the nation the only poll about the recall that counts.

Or Virginia.

Wherever it ends up, it won't be coming back to an unstable state like Wisconsin, in which the Governor and legislators can end up being recalled on the snap of the union boss's fingers.

Must be an April Fool's Day poll. Can't think of anyone I know that supports this recall. It's a waste of time and money.

It’s dismaying that it’s this close, given what we’ve just been through.

The average Wisconsin voter wants a vocal minority machine to run the state and their lives?

What are they thinking? Have they talked to California?

Let’s hope they have not thought this through yet.

That's an important point. It's a relatively small sample (500 likely voters), so the margin of error is +/- 4.5 points. The result is well within that.

It's still disappointingly close. And given this is a presidential election year, turn-out will be heavy.
