Polls, polls, polls
There’ve been a few notable Baltimore Sun polls released this week, including one that found the majority of Marylanders polled favor legalizing slots, one that found Gov. O’Malley’s job approval rating dipping into the 30s post-special session, and another that revealed 57 percent of Marylanders support the death penalty.
Well, here’s the latest poll on a controversial issue: most voters in Maryland support some form of legalized same sex unions.
The poll shows 19 percent support gay marriage while 39 percent support civil unions; 31 percent of those polled oppose either form of same-sex unions.
Would you have expected these poll results to unfold as they have? How much faith do you place in this data?
