Fox News Poll: Voters say yes to face masks, no to rallies

[brooklynite]

Voters gave a thumbs-up to face masks and a thumbs-down to political rallies in the latest Fox News Poll. Eighty (80) percent have a favorable view of mask-wearers, including 89 percent of Democrats, 68 percent of Republicans, and 61 percent of those who strongly approve of President Trump’s job performance.

By a 36-point margin, voters say presidential candidates holding large political events and rallies is a bad idea (23 percent good idea, 59 percent bad idea). Another 16 percent say it depends.

Currently, 84 percent are at least somewhat concerned about the spread of coronavirus in the U.S. That includes 54 percent who feel very concerned.

While those are big numbers, there is less worry today than there was earlier this spring. Concern peaked at 94 percent in April, with 70 percent very concerned at that time.

2. "registered Voters"

Conducted June 13-16 2020 under the joint direction of Beacon Research (D) and Shaw & Company (R), this Fox News Poll includes interviews with 1,343 randomly chosen registered voters nationwide who spoke with live interviewers on both landlines and cellphones. The poll has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 2.5 percentage points for all registered voters.

4. Despite how biased Fox News is

Their polls are actually pretty good. They use two reputable polling companies, one Democratic and one Republican, and they use live callers and don't do nonsense like weight on party ID, like some Republican pollsters trying to make things look better for Trump do.
