Coloradans: Our Choice Is Tied To Card Check
Saturday, December 19th, 2009 by adminThe drumbeat continues: “Support for healthcare and ‘card check’ legislation would weigh on Sen. Michael Bennet’s (D-Colo.) reelection chances, a new poll found Friday.”
That’s the word from The Hill’s Mike O’Brien, who continues:
The Colorado Democrat’s reelection prospects could hinge on two key issues, though: the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) and healthcare reform legislation.
When read a description of EFCA, 66 percent of Coloradans said they’d prefer a candidate who would vote against the union organizing bill, compared to 29 percent who said they would prefer a candidate who supports the ‘card check’ bill.
When read description of key components of the bill, the card check provision and the binding arbitration provision, almost 2/3rds of voters expressed disapproval in the poll, which was commissioned by the anti-EFCA Workforce Fairness Institute and conducted by Public Opinion Strategies.
This is just the latest example of voters clearly signaling their displeasure with EFCA. Virginia’s gubernatorial victor was incontrovertible evidence, and this year we’ve heard similar tales from Kansas, Nevada, and now Colorado.
When will our elected leaders start listening? When they’re un-elected?
